CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR
PURCHASE OF A NEW YETI.
We are condent your new bicycle will exceed your expectations for value, performance,
and ride quality. Each frameset and component has been custom specied and designed
to enhance your riding experience. Whether you are a beginner cyclist, or a seasoned pro,
your Yeti bicycle will provide endless hours of two-wheeled fun.
This model specic manual is designed to be used in conjunction with the general Yeti
Owner’s Manual and the manuals supplied by the suspension manufacturers. If you did
not receive the Yeti Owner’s Manual or the manual provided by the suspension manufacturer,
download the materials off the Internet, or contact your local dealer. Bicycling can be
a hazardous activity even under the best of circumstances. Proper maintenance of your
bicycle is your responsibility and when done properly helps reduce the risk of injury and
damage to your bicycle.
This manual outlines basic setup and maintenance recommendations of your new Yeti.
It is impossible to anticipate every situation or condition that may occur during the assembly,
setup, and maintenance of your bicycle, Yeti recommends that all service and repairs be
performed by your local authorized Yeti Dealer.
This manual contains many “Warnings” and “Cautions” concerning the consequences
of failure to maintain or inspect your bicycle. The word “Warning” indicates a potentially
hazardous situation in which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death.
The word “Caution” indicates a potentially hazardous situation in which, if not avoided
may result in minor injuries or damage to your bicycle or a component of your bicycle.
Be sure to read and understand all of the Warnings and Cautions listed in the manual.
WARNING: Make sure you review and understand the warnings, instructions, and content of this
manual and accompanying manuals for your bicycle.
WARNING: Technological advances have made bicycles and bicycle components more complex
and the pace of innovation is increasing. It is impossible for this manual or the accompanying
manuals to provide all the information required to properly repair and/or maintain your bicycle.
In order to help minimize the chances of an injury, it is critical for you to have work performed
by an authorized Yeti retailer.

THE LOWDOWN ON THE
ARC AND ITS FEATURES.
1 MODERN GEO TO ELEVATE HOW HARDTAILS CAN BE RIDDEN
Cutting-edge, high modulus carbon is hand laid to create our Turq Series frames.
That same stiffness and efciency can also be found in our Carbon Series frame sets.
2 HIGH MODULUS CARBON FIBER MAIN FRAME
The ARC does away with the front derailleur mount, making it a 1x drive specic frame.
3 INTEGRATED 2-BOLT ISCG-05 MOUNTS
2-bolt ISCG-05 chain guide mounts are there for you in case you need extra drivetrain
security for rowdy sections.
4 INTEGRATED 41MM / 52MM TAPERED HEADTUBE
Designed around 130mm of travel, the ARC comes with the latest Fox Racing Shox 34
front fork.
5 CUSTOM DOWN TUBE PROTECTOR AND RIBBED CHAIN GUARDS TO DECREASE CHAIN
SLAP NOISE
Custom seatstay, chainstay and down tube guards keep the ride quiet while protecting
the frame.
6 RATTLE-FREE CABLE PORT ASSEMBLY SECURES CABLES AND HOSES TO PROVIDE
A SILENT RIDE
The ARC is designed with rattle-free cable ports and internally molded cable routing
tubes keeping the bike quiet and clean looking while reducing cable rub and overall
maintenance.
7 INTERNALLY MOLDED CARBON TUBES FOR HASSLE-FREE CABLE ROUTING AND A QUIET BIKE
Congurable routing ports that provide a clean look to your frame when you ditch the
cables and go wireless.

MAINTENANCE OVERVIEW
Following these guidelines will help maintain the performance of your bicycle and prevent
more serious problems from arising. It is important to remember that service intervals can
vary depending on climate, trail conditions and riding frequency. Servicing your bike requires
special knowledge and tools. If you are unsure about working on your own bicycle, contact
your authorized Yeti Dealer for more information on general bicycle maintenance.
TORQUE
Yeti strongly recommends using a torque wrench when assembling your frame. Torque
specications for individual parts on the ARC are listed below, as well as in the step by step
assembly instructions later in the manual. For general bicycle maintenance please consult the
torque specications of the component you are adjusting.

DROPPER POST INSERTION GUIDE
Droppers are an essential tool for the modern mountain bike but proper clearance checks
are required before heading out for your rst ride.
The key checks are as follows:
Ensure your dropper is short enough to t into the seat tube without interfering with the
frames structure but you are still able to achieve your desired BB-Saddle measurement.
See the max insertion depth chart to conrm this distance for wired and wireless posts.
Always perform a nal check to ensure your post is installed to at least the minimum
insertion line.
We strive to spec out dropper lengths to provide the maximum drop for the highest
percentage of our riders. There is a wide range of saddle heights for every frame size.
There is a possibility saddle height could fall outside of this range. A small percentage
of customers might nd they require a shorter or longer post given their saddle height.
If you have any questions, please contact Yeti or your local bike shop.
*Subtract 34mm for a cabled dropper to accommodate housing bend angle.
