The brief for this bike was to create a model for the UCI World Cup.
After discussions with our team, it became clear they had strong preferences regarding suspension characteristics and geometry. Due to time constraints, we had to set aside our original production design. Instead, we collaborated with our sister company, HNF, to closely replicate the geometry and suspension features of our initial concept. The kinematics were designed to ensure a consistently progressive leverage ratio, providing excellent mid-range support and a “bottomless” feel at the end of the suspension travel to boost rider confidence, making them feel they could push their riding to its limit.
(Small bump sensitivity is irrelevant in downhilling as there are no small bumps!)
