The Reach features the Bowhead FLOW™ which is our unique articulating front-end which allows for 7” of effective front end articulation.

The standard Reach articulation is designed with bushings. The new FLOW™ Pro Bearing Front-End is made with bearings and
delivers increased clearance, maneuverability, and performance. Enduro bearings also decrease the amount of maintenance
required and deliver an exceptional riding experience, enhancing both durability and efficiency on challenging terrain -
Articulation assistance is available:

Lean Assist Bands are heavy-duty, dynamic bungee that allows the riders to customize their ride. It allows you to get the benefits of the articulation, but with added safety and control. We recommend starting on the tighter end, and then decrease the tension as you gain more confidence!

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Why Ti?
You might be asking yourself why Bowhead offers the option of upgrading the frame tubes of the Reach from stainless steel to titanium. The answer is in the very description of this alloy. Titanium is powerfully agile and immutably tough, with unparalleled strength-to-weight ratio for rigidity,and just enough give to provide a spring and make you feel like you are floating on air. It is twice as strong as aluminum, only half the weight of steel, is impact resistant, fatigue tolerant, and will never corrode. Named after the Titans of Greek mythology, famed for their legendary strength, titanium is used in advanced aircraft, for armor plating, to build naval ships, spacecraft and missiles, and yes, even the Bowhead Reach adventure bike. As a material, it is peerless, and will be your forever frame.
Quad Handlebars, Grips, Brake, and Throttle Systems
The Bowhead Reach can be used by a quadriplegic with our quad specific handlebar. The brakes and throttle are operable just using your wrist extension and the bar ends help keep your hands from sliding off.
