Yeti ASR T4 Bike w/DT Swiss XRC 1200 Wheelset
Yeti ASR T4 Bike w/DT Swiss XRC 1200 Wheelset Info
The Yeti ASR T4 Bike w/DT Swiss XRC 1200 Wheelset is what happens when one of cycling's most respected brands returns to cross-country racing with a decade of perspective and a mandate to build better than before. The ASR is Yeti's reincarnated XC race bike, engineered from the ground up on a TURQ-Series carbon chassis with 115mm of flex-stay suspension. The T4 build pairs that flagship carbon platform with SRAM XX1 Eagle 12-speed drivetrain, RockShox SID Ultimate suspension, and an upgraded DT Swiss XRC 1200 carbon wheelset — the same wheels found on the top-spec T5 kit.
Yeti's engineers describe the TURQ-Series carbon development behind the ASR as the most extensive carbon project in company history. The goal was zero redundant carbon: custom ply shapes, intelligent draping methods, and precision material choices eliminate every gram that isn't structurally essential. Pivots are hollowed out — removing solid volume at each junction where conventional designs keep it — without sacrificing bearing life or structural integrity. Each frame size also receives its own size-specific carbon layup, individually tuned to match torsional stiffness and chassis flex profiles across the full five-size range. A rider on an XS feels the same ride character as a rider on an XL. The TURQ-Series ASR is the lightest full-suspension mountain bike Yeti has ever built.
The flex-stay suspension design has been part of Yeti's engineering identity since 2003, and the reincarnated ASR brings it current with modern kinematics and short-stroke shock geometry. The 115mm of rear travel runs a near-linear progression curve, keeping the suspension active and supportive through the mid-stroke where XC riders spend most of their time. With 20% sag, small-bump sensitivity rivals longer-travel designs without the added weight or pedaling inefficiency of more travel. The final quarter of travel ramps progressively, absorbing bigger hits and keeping the bike on line through technical terrain. Geometry is purpose-built for modern XC: a consistent 66.5° head tube angle across all five sizes is reactive and precise, while seat tube angles ranging from 70.4° to 72.1° put riders in a forward power position for efficient climbing and smooth transitions to out-of-saddle sprints.
Design Benefits
- TURQ-Series carbon with hollow pivots and size-specific layups — Yeti's most advanced carbon construction produces the lightest full-suspension bike in their history, engineered without any redundant material and individually tuned at each frame size for consistent ride character.
- DT Swiss XRC 1200 carbon wheelset — The same wheels spec'd on the flagship T5, the XRC 1200 (30mm internal width, Spline hub) saves 388g over the standard XRC 1700 wheelset in rotational weight — a meaningful reduction that shows up on every climb and acceleration out of a corner.
- Integrated TwistLoc lockout routing — Both the RockShox SID Ultimate fork and SIDLuxe Ultimate shock run TwistLoc lockout through internal routing, letting riders toggle between open and locked with a grip twist mid-sprint or mid-climb without reaching for a handlebar remote.
- SRAM XX1 Eagle 12-speed drivetrain — The 32T front ring paired with a 10-52 cassette covers everything from grinding technical climbs to sustained high-speed descents. XX1 Eagle's reliability and shift quality are proven across competitive XC racing at every level.
- Race-specific frame details that matter on bad days — An integrated rear fender keeps suspension moving clean in mud, dual internal bottle cage mounts support long race efforts, a custom pivot-mounted chainguide prevents drops on technical lines, and clearance for 29x2.4 rubber across all five frame sizes.
Final Take
The ASR T4 with DT Swiss XRC 1200 wheels is the build for riders who want the full capability of Yeti's flagship XC frame with a proven SRAM drivetrain and a wheel upgrade that pays dividends every time you push hard. It rides fast on smooth singletrack and doesn't back down from the rocky, technical terrain that defines modern cross-country racing. Between the TURQ-Series carbon, the near-linear flex-stay suspension, and the XRC 1200 wheelset, the T4 covers everything competitive XC demands — including the terrain that most XC bikes can't follow you through.
