Some say the SB140 never met a dirt it didn’t like. We agree in spades. what’s your pleasure? Drag a bar. Make an edit. stay out after dark. Try it. Land it. Or just stay at it. Happy to pedal. Greedy for more. The mayor of jibtown, proudly wearing the rip crown. The SB140. down to fun.

Responsive and designed to feel like an extension of the rider.
Feels about right.
Lunch Ride Kit Is More Than Just A Name
Front Fork Travel
10 more millimeters of fork travel
It never hurts to go bigger on your gear when you're going bigger out there. Lunch Ride kits get a 160mm Grip 2 damper fork so riders can dial in their suspension and get the most performance out of their suspension and most of the terrain.
Slacker HTA
Slacker headtube for bigger terrain.
Degrees Slacker HTA
Lengthen the fork and you slacken the head angle by half a degree. What you get is a bike that exudes confidence no matter what you choose to descend so you can push longer, faster, and further into the unknown.
Component Spec Changes
More than just added travel Yeti wanted to enhance the whole package
Wider bars, beefier tires, burlier wheels, and more powerful brakes. LR isn't just a spec change. It's a mindset shifter. Seven total spec differences make sure the Lunchride is ready for anything the trail throws at it. It's up to any task. Are you?
Down To Fun.
Technology is only valuable when how it works is invisible to the rider. But its benefits are felt loud and clear every time they ride. The SB140 is the world's finest rip bike. We'll let the pictures do the talking.
Anti-Squat
Across Yeti's line, they have chosen a relatively flat and high anti-squat curve in beginning and mid-section of travel where pedaling commonly occurs a.k.a the pedaling zone.
This creates an efficient pedaling platform through your entire pedaling zone, there is an inflection point where the Switch Infinity link moves down, dropping the anti-squat drastically. Riders are typically not pedaling in this zone, so chain forces have less of an effect on the suspension performance.
Decoupling of the chain forces allows the suspension to work more efficiently to absorb impacts making the feel of a Yeti distinct.
They Aren't Details If You Notice Them.
Shuttle pad so frame scratches don't happen on the way to the trail.
At the heart of the SB140 suspension design is Yeti's patented switch infinity, with a translating pivot system for excellent anti-squat characteristics.
