Meet the Lamborghinni of hardtails our high-end Vendetta. Frame only. Ships 35-55 days from order.
The Custom Vendetta allows you to specify how you want your Vendetta, use the option buttons to design and create your own Vendetta based to suit you and your riding all based around our best-of-breed hardtail. Customization is strictly limited to the options listed on this page and subsequent fine tuning of those options. We do not undertake custom work beyond base geometry and adjustments of the specifications listed if needed. We allow 3 drawing versions to get your Vendetta how you want it, after this we charge a fee of €25 per subsequent version.
Choose your headtube
The Vendetta is fully compatible with tapered forks either with the default straight 44 headtube or a tapered headtube.
Rear brake mounting
The 2020 Vendetta uses either IS tabbed or post mount (PM) rear braking mounts depending on the option chosen. IS tabs will require a brake mount hardware for all rotors where as the post mount option is set for 160mm rotors and we recommend a max rear rotor size of 185mm. NOTE: if sliding dropouts are selected they feature 160mm PM as standard and IS tab mounting will not be included on your frame.
Choose your dropouts
Dropouts - For 2020 we’re giving you more choice of dropouts whether it be the new slimline, cut away style of the Breezer dropouts, our Kingdom replaceable dropouts or for those who want extreme flexibility sliding dropouts. All based around a 148x12 boost rear spacing.
The sliding dropouts give you the option to adjust the ride of your Vendetta, so you can tune both tyre clearance and handling, and even run the Vendetta as a single speed. The dropouts will make the chainstay at its longest (29 x 2.5 compatible) all based around a default of 420mm.
Choose your cable routing
Probably the most personal part of your new Vendetta is where you want your cables? So, we’re offering you three options for routing your cables and hose in the main triangle; standard external c-clip guides, new bolt on alloy guides or our new 2020 stealth internal routing with alloy inserts to make the frame look cleaner and make installation easier.
Bottom brackets
With more and more choices for bottom brackets for 2020 we're giving you the option of a standard threaded BSA or the new T47 bottom bracket which is lighter, stronger gives you more crank and BB options. Note T47 may reduce tyre clearance for some 29x2.4" tyres.

The Vendetta is all about speed and fun. The first Vendetta we welded over 11 years ago, since then all our know-how and experience from designing and riding hardtail has gone into the Vendetta.
The Vendetta's signature short chainstay and a low-slung bottom bracket make it accelerate and corner like no other hardtail. It's geometry and chainstays are designed to run either 27.5 (650b) or 29er wheels with compromising the handling.
Today, the Vendetta's look is often copied by other many other newer bike brands but without the same understanding of what makes a rowdy titanium hardtail tick.
Our unrivalled experience in making titanium hardtail's means we've removed all undesired flex whilst maximising titanium’s built-in spring with unique custom tubing that gives the Kingdom Vendetta unrivalled handling and acceleration and makes it a best of breeds winner.

The Vendetta is a low-slung missile, giving you loads of body clearance so you can throw the bike around when the trail gets rowdy. For 2019 we have 4 sizes available: small, medium, large and extra-large. To help you choose the correct size, we have made this chart.
We suggest the "Reach" measurement as a great starting point for choosing the right size Vendetta frame. The reach measurement tells you how the bike will feel when you are in an riding position standing on the pedals. Reach is the standard that the mountain bike industry uses so you can use it to compare other bikes.

The Vendetta’s geometry has been carved to perfection after hundreds of hours of riding on all types of trails but we understand everyone’s different so we’re offering you the opportunity to customise the head angle and the seat angle of your new Vendetta in the options panel on this page.
If you are unsure about geometry you can use the default geo of 64.5 and 75 degrees, which we happen to think is perfect and will give you a great ride, or send us an email and we can help you adjust your Vendettas geometry. Note that geometry chart is a guide as applying custom options may effect geometry such as reach and wheelbase.
