Yeti's "Race" kit is the middle of their 3 kit offerings for 2009. Here it's paired with their top-end XC racing frame, the AS-R carbon. The full-carbon AS-R features Yeti's proven AS-R (active suspension) design with 3.9" of rear wheel travel. The wild integrated seatmast shaves grams, yielding a claimed weight of 4.25 lbs (size Medium frame), while press-in style bottom bracket cups further lighten the load.
