Burke Mountain Bike Park: Which Bikes Can I Use?

Jul 06, 2023

Which Rental Bikes Are Suitable For The Burke Mountain Bike Park?

The Burke Mountain Bike Park is now open and Village Sport Shop has you covered with your rental to make it an amazing experience! With twelve downhill and ten cross-country trails, the park (consisting of expert jump, excavated and flow trails) has something for everyone. There are two new single-track trails from the CCC Road providing for different descend options from the summit into the bike park. Check out our rental options to make it a great day whether you’re riding off the summit or ripping laps in the park:

Transition Sentinel

The Sentinel blurs the lines between being a stable enduro with a “bottomless” feel and being a playful trail bike. Its 160mm/150mm of travel will let you tackle the summit or bike park at Burke Mountain while still feeling tame and rideable on the smoother surfaces of Kingdom Trails. Where you used to go around, you will now go over. Where you had to push uphill, you will now pedal. Where you used to roll slowly, you’ll now chase more and more speed.

Rent For: $100 (Aluminum) or $130 (Carbon) per day.

Giant Reign 2 (Aluminum)

This redesigned enduro ripper is made to push the limits on hard-charging terrain. An updated Maestro suspension with 160mm of rear travel, combined with 170mm of travel up front will eat up rocks, drops, or whatever else the trail throws your way. The Reign was designed and tested under the extreme conditions of EWS races, inspiring confidence on anything and everything you’ll experience here in the NEK. With updated, trail-friendly geometry and 29-inch wheels front and rear, you’ll be surprised by the climbing efficiency of this brawny beast while benefiting from its boulder bashing mastery on the descents.

Rent For: $100 per day

Liv Intrigue 2 (Aluminum)

Whether you're looking ahead to park days, staring down a rocky line you’re determined to conquer, or focused on burlier single track – the all-new Intrigue LT equips you with the confidence of 160mm/150mm of travel front and rear to tackle it all. Designed with female and smaller male shredders in mind, this ride can handle everything you can throw its way.

Rent For: $100 per day
