Solid Speed:
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.
