@Titan Racing Bikes I see that you have been running Microshift groupsets on your lower end bikes. Are you perhaps considering the new Microshift Sword gravel groupset for the 2024 Switch? It looks pretty sweet, for the price.

Sweet. Well then I guess I'll be getting a Switch in March! I just hope the colourways will be lekker.

UPDATE 8: Titan Racing Cypher RS Calypso Dash is in stock at Titan Racing Dealers.

I see that some dealers advertise the Calypso as a Ladies MTB, some not.

What's the opinion of the Hubbers.?

From our side, the Calypso is a ladies-orientated paint job. There are quite a few males who like and have liked the Calypso paint jobs and happily ride them. The current purple version in some models has been particularly popular.

To add, the bike in the post you quoted was/is another example of a bike that was very popular and happily ridden by quite a few men.

Thanks TRB.

Having had a pink T-Mobile Giant TCR road bike, the Calypso's paint job is quite manly. 🤣

In the past Calypso was a ladies specific geometry.  Is it only on the Cypher that Calypso is the paint color? Are Titan planning to scrap the ladies geometry going forward?

Sidelined myself from MTB about 10 years ago ... back when 26ers were still common and 27.5 and 29 had just become fashionable. 🤣

Needless to say, not only have frame standards changed but so too have groupsets and suspension parts.

Would this Cypher Calypso be regarded as entry level dual sus MTB by current standards.?
