FeaturesX-Taper Headtube: External butted head-tube with huge dimensioned 1.5” lower head-set and matching taper-steerer fork. Post-Mount Disc: Direct assembling of the disc-caliper at the frame’s rear drop-out – simplified adjustment of the caliper. Double Chamber Technology: Integrated reinforcing rib separates highly stressed carbon-tubes into 2 individual chambers; bending strength and hit-resistance are getting improved. Bio Fiber Damping Compound: Maximum comfort even at the rigid rear stays and forks of MTB hardtails or carbon road machines: Additional flax fibres in the carbon structure of the seat and/or chain stays and/or fork blades reduce high-frequency vibrations. Flex-Stay: Special shaped seat- and/or chain-stays improve vibration-damping and create noticeable comfort. Lock-Out: Device to lock the suspension (fork and/or rear-shock) through switching a lever, being located directly at the fork-crown or shock. 12-142 Thru-Axle: 12mm thru-axle with 142 drop-out width: Increased stiffness and perfect disc-rotor position, no tools required for wheel disassembling. Nano Matrix Carbon: NANO-particles reinforce the epoxy-based matrix structure - for up to 40% improved hit-resistance. Structure Elements: Carbon-frame, which is made from compact dimensioned carbon frame-segments. The bonding of these elements is made according to the specific stress lasting at the different areas, either by internal joints or tube-to-tube.
