| Features | ABC™ Pivots: Our Angular Bushing Concept (ABC™) pivots rotate on a tapered alloy insert, eliminating binding. They weigh less than half the weight of a typical bearing system — 20 grams lighter per pivot, for 120 grams of weight savings on a six-pivot frame. ABC™ Pivots are also twice as stiff as typical bearing systems and require less maintenance to boot! FORM™ Alloy: Each FORM™ tube that we create is engineered for its specific purpose within the frame, ensuring optimized strength, weight, and ride quality. FORM™ tubesets utilize premium materials to meet our strict requirements. SMOOTHLINK™ Suspension: Our patented SMOOTHLINK™ Suspension design keeps suspension fully active and reduces pedal-bob. Designed to shine on singletrack climbs, it stays active-yet-neutral to maintain traction while climbing. By placing the rear chainstay pivot above the rear axle we keep the average chain torque line parallel to the lower link (the line between main pivot and rear pivot); this widens the gear range where pedaling neither compresses nor stiffens the suspension. It also allows us to fine-tune our bikes' end-stroke characteristics, preventing riders from blowing through travel and experiencing harsh bottom-outs.
