SIMPLON's technologies are ingenious and smart. Everything you need on the trail comes with you in the Storage Box: Tools, power bars and more are cleverly stored inside the frame of the bike. Xi Geometry stands for the frame-size-specific length of the chainstays, which ensures an even wheel load distribution and thus safety and optimal handling. Rider weight and size affect the kinematics of the bike. Xi Kinematics guarantee consistent suspension performance no matter the frame size.
Bike classification: ASTM category 4
