At the front, the 120mm RockShox Judy Silver TK fork absorbs bumps and roots, improving comfort and traction on rough terrain. The Shimano CUES 1x11 drivetrain offers seamless shifting and a wide gear range, with an 11-50T cassette making steep climbs more manageable.
Braking performance is reliable with Shimano BR-MT200 hydraulic disc brakes, featuring 180mm front and 160mm rear rotors for consistent stopping power. The 29" Boardman MHT wheels, paired with Maxxis Forekaster 2.4" tyres, provide excellent grip, fast-rolling speed, and durability, making them ideal for UK trail conditions.
Additional comfort and control come from the Boardman women's-specific MTB saddle, 740mm-760mm wide handlebars, and a short 45mm stem for precise handling. With internal cable routing for a clean look and low maintenance, the MHT 8.8 W is a modern, no-nonsense trail hardtail built for fun and progression.
