The Polygon Cascade 3 2026 is an easy-going 29" hardtail built for riders starting out on trails, dirt roads and daily rides around town. Its lightweight ALX XC Sport aluminium frame pairs with a SunTour XCE 28 suspension fork with 100mm of travel to take the sting out of rough surfaces. A simple Shimano 1x8 drivetrain, with an Altus trigger shifter, ESSA rear derailleur and a wide 11-45T cassette, keeps gear changes easy to learn and gives you a low gear for steep climbs. Hydraulic disc brakes with 160mm rotors provide dependable stopping power in wet and dry conditions. Deli 29 x 2.25" tyres on double-wall alloy rims roll smoothly over obstacles and offer good grip on loose ground. With a 700mm riser bar and short 40mm stem, the handling is stable and confidence-inspiring. Available in sizes S to XL in Cream and Red, the Cascade 3 is a well-rounded first mountain bike.
