Liv

Tempt 4

The Liv Tempt 4 is the entry point into Liv’s performance mountain bike range, specifically designed for women.
For the 2025/2026 season, Liv has significantly overhauled this model. It moves away from the "recreational" 2x or 3x drivetrains of the past and adopts a modern, trail-ready 1x system. Surprisingly for a bike at this price point, it also features a Thru-Axle rear, providing a level of stiffness and security usually reserved for bikes twice its price.
Frameset & Women's Specific Geometry
- Frame: ALUXX-Grade Aluminium, featuring internal cable routing and a design optimized specifically for a woman’s centre of gravity and reach.
- Fork: SR Suntour XCE, 80mm travel
- Handlebar: Giant Connect Trail, 31.8mm (690mm width).
- Stem: Giant Sport, 7-degree rise.
- Saddle: Liv ErgoContact Trail
- Colour: Gloss Black / Golden Wheat.
Drivetrain & Brakes (The 1x Revolution)
- Shifter: microSHIFT Acolyte, 1x8-speed.
- Rear Derailleur: microSHIFT Acolyte with SpringLock Clutch
- Crankset: ProWheel Forged, 33T narrow-wide chainring.
- Cassette: microSHIFT Acolyte, 12-46T.
- Brakes: Tektro MD-C510 Mechanical Disc.
- Rotors: 160mm Front / 160mm Rear.
Wheels & Modern Standards
- Wheelset: Giant GX03V, Alloy, Double Wall, 21mm internal width.
- Front Hub: Alloy, Sealed Bearing, 9x100mm Quick Release.
- Rear Hub: Alloy, Sealed Bearing, 12x142mm Thru-Axle. (This is the standout feature for 2026—it makes the rear of the bike much stiffer and ensures the brake rotor is perfectly aligned every time).
- Tires: Maxxis Ikon 27.5x2.2", wire bead. (A fast-rolling XC tire that provides great confidence on hard-packed dirt and gravel).
Key Performance Features
- Acolyte Clutch Drivetrain: Most entry-level bikes suffer from chains dropping off on bumpy trails. The Acolyte’s clutch mechanism solves this, making the bike much more capable for "real" off-road riding than a standard hybrid.
- Massive Gear Range: The 12-46T cassette is a hill-climbing weapon. It allows newer riders to stay seated and spin up steep inclines that would usually require walking.
- Internal Routing & Dropper Ready: The frame is modern enough to include internal routing for your cables, and it is dropper-post compatible (30.9mm). If you decide to get more serious about trails, you can easily upgrade to a dropper post later.
- Integrated Mounts: Despite its trail credentials, it includes a KSA 18mm kickstand mount
