OVERVIEW
Engineered so it’s light enough for easy touring, yet wide enough for outstanding free touring, the MTN 96 CARBON moves downhill as effectively as it climbs up. Combining all the strengths of Salomon’s iconic MTN 95, it has an alpine shape and a more lightweight, carbon construction. Partly made with recycled and natural materials.
