What Meier says about the Crosscut BC
“Own the Backcountry
Based on our award-winning Prospector, the Crosscut BC is built to get you uphill, faster, when you’re earning your turns. With a flat to rockered profile, it’s built to tour more efficiently with a nose to blast through crud or pop on top of that elusive white gold.
Local Nod
When you’ve earned every turn, maximize your reward like the miners did with the Crosscut BC.”
