The tubular steel swingarm is designed to mimic the look of a hardtail machine, its shock hidden from sight to complete the ruse. |
Mounting the rear shock in a different position can lead to severe damages at the frame, the swingarm and the rear shock. |
A chain-drive, not a shaft, transfers power to the rear wheel, which is suspended on a triangulated swingarm. |
If the shock touches the frame while doing so do not use this shock in order to avoid damage to frame, swingarm or shock. |
The bike's aluminum twin-spar frame and swingarm are lightweight, compact and rigid to keep the weight down and the power up. |
The linkage goes up through the rear swingarm and makes the bend to enter the top tube by means of a universal joint. |
