If you love the timeless, unique quality of cromoly then look no further and check out the ever-popular Metropolis with its steel tubes, svelte aesthetics and geometry developed by the best riders in the world. The Metropolis 3 is the most affordable bike in the range and could be your first proper dirt bike. Rest assured; the nice price doesn’t mean you will be losing out on the fun - this is one hell of an exhilarating ride. The Metropolis 3 is built around a strong chromoly frame that’s double-butted upfront to reinforce it where most needed, namely the headtube area. Like its siblings, the geometry is based on the high-end Decade used by the whole NS Bikes freeride team. The tapered headtube will let you upgrade the fork when the time comes.

- Cromoly Double Butted / Hi-Ten frame w/taper headtube based on decade/majesty geometry
- RST Dirt SD 100mm fork
- NS Bikes aftermarket cockpit

*In the bicycle industry, suppliers and factories sometimes change specs without notice and state that they are "subject to change without notice". This is because bicycles are made from hundreds of parts which come from dozens of vendors. Parts are sometimes updated to the most current production generation/iteration one gets better or more current parts or a comparable part. Product specifications are subject to change without notice.
