The Solid Speed gearbox bike has been developed to harness
the latest technological advances and make this available
to the downhillers and freeriders.
You get a totally new riding experience, no noise, and perfect
gear selection every time. The gearbox works in such a way
thats it is possible to change gear even when you are not
pedalling. So exiting that tight corner, or setting up for
the final sprint, will never be a problem again. The Speed
has been designed to have a low, and central, centre of gravity
and the linkage gives the Speed predictable and confidence
inspiring handling. Weight is removed from the swingarm because
there is no need for a cassete or rear mech, this enables
the suspension to work more effectively, and there is no rear
mech to be damaged, by passing rocks. The 240mm travel monocoque
frame is made in Germany using high quality 7020 AL T6 for
improved stiffness. The bike also features rider influenced
inovations such as making use of idential front and rear wheels.
