The Mutt 7700 smartly mixes up the parts lineup to give you the alternative of a top-quality aluminum-framed ride at a lower overall price than the Mutt 7800. We’ll level with you: You’ll appreciate the cost savings but might not notice much of a difference in performance. The two Mutts share the same stout but light aluminum frame, and that’s a good thing, because one principle Bianchi lives by is that the frame is the heart of the bike. On the Mutt 7700, a great frame plus a no-excuses hardware roster provides all riders with a worthy option in the big blue sea of serious aluminum mountain bikes.
Highlights: Bianchi aluminum frame. Rockshox Tora 302 fork. Shimano LX/Deore 27-speed shifting. Shimano Deore disc brakes. Continental Speedking tires.
