JEALOUS AL 8.0 HD has become a classic in every model series: a light and solid hardtail, but with that certain something for more trail fun and control in the terrain. The basis is, as always, the light and solid JEALOUS AL frame, which has all the technical features you need, but only puts a discreet strain on the scales.

Highlights of the Radon Jealous AL 8.0 HD

The 8.0 HD model stands out from the rest of the JEALOUS AL range, as we’ve made it a little more trail-competent. This starts with the comfortable Rock Shox 35 Gold RL suspension fork, which surfs smoothly over root carpets or steps with its 100mm travel. You always keep an overview, which is also supported by the short, wide cockpit with an optimal Race Face shape. The Magura MT Thirty brake also offers full control with real power and good modulation, and the four pistons at the front do the rest, so that you can always anchor with courage and in a relaxed manner. For downhill riding, the RADON Dropper Vario seatpost helps you to shift your weight far to the rear, all from the comfort of the handlebar. Long tours? No problem with the JEALOUS AL 8.0 HD, a SRAM GX Eagle 12-speed groupset provides you with the right gear ratio for any terrain and is also a solid partner for several thousand kilometres. The SUNringlé Düroc 30 wheelset is also good for epic trail rides; at a very acceptable weight, it is also solid enough for demanding terrain. The overall package is completed by Schwalbe Nobby Nic tires, which offer a very good compromise between rolling performance and grip. JEALOUS AL 8.0 HD will become your best friend!

The Jealous AL Frame

Whether for pronounced trail ambitions, as a touring bike or a light, race-ready cross country bike at an economical price: the JEALOUS AL frame serves as an excellent basis for various set-ups and technically brings everything that is currently required. The hydroformed aluminium frame has a lot of stiffness and, with its 1,680 grams of weight, is very light and thus serves as a good basis for fun hardtails. The shift cables are neatly tucked away inside the frame, the wheel axles come in the trendy Boost standard for more wheel stiffness, the PressFit bottom bracket is broadly supported and concealed in the frame, and the frame is also prepared for routing the cables of a Vario post. Of course, the JEALOUS AL frame comes in a 29″ wheel size and is uncompromisingly prepared for single gears. You can’t get a better frame in this price range!
