Description

From mentioned reasons we believe in purposefulness and future development as well as larger sales of the full suspension (FSX) bicycles so we launched into the market for the model year 2011 two completely new carbon frame platforms of full suspension frames though having the same model designations as in 2010: A-RAY and ERA. Both frames utilize four-pivot construction. Of course, each frame is designed separately having its own specific goal. Springing lowers the transmission of oscillatory motions (vibrations) induced by the ride over the terrain irregularities which are transmitted to the frame or rider’s body in the hard tail bicycle. Springing thus protects the rider against undesirable shocks and the frame from excessive mechanical stress. Reduced vibration levels generally increase the riding comfort which is positively reflected in a reduced rider fatigue and, as a result, in the improved riding safety. Structural elements of A-RAY frame platforms 1. Maximally lightened construction of the frame with the reduced sections of the tubes in XC CONCEPT style. 2. The four-pivot mechanism with 100 mm rear wheel travel. 3. Optimum geometry for the XC riding style. 4. The seat stay of the same cross section in it's length with the International Standard (IS) disc mount for reasons of the lightened appearance of the rear stay. 5. The reduced and profiled linkage for a maximum weight saving and lightened appearance of the frame.
