The New Jeep® Rubicon™ AWD Mountain Bike is the first of it's kind in the world. The patented design consists of a lightweight, internalized, shaft-driven system that allows the rider to engage both wheels for additional power when there is "wheel slip". With the simple flip of a handlebar-mounted switch, the AWD system provides increased control, traction and stability on slippery or loose surfaces and unmatched power to climb steep hills. Simply stated, when the rear wheel slips — the front wheel grips. Intended to tackle the toughest terrain, it incorporates all the great advantages that are associated with any Jeep® vehicle, on, or off the road.

AWD Performance-
If you know what all wheel drive does for a sport utility vehicle, just imagine what AWD can do for a mountain bike.

With increased traction available at the push of a button, you can conquer conditions that you thought were un-rideable before. AWD provides greater control over wet roots and slippery rocks. You can power up steeper, more difficult hills and will stick like glue to side slopes and corners.

The AWD system is so efficient; it is hard to tell whether it is working, until you need it. With the front drive disengaged, the Jeep® Rubicon™ AWD handles and feels just like any dialed-in mountain bike. Engage the AWD system and you’ll feel increased control, stability and traction on slippery or loose surfaces.

AWD works whether you’re peddling or coasting. You will be able to descend with confidence and corner more aggressively due to added front wheel grip.
