It is a concept where the frame and rear shock work together as a single system with optimized kinematics and suspension technology.
It allows the rider to reduce rear wheel travel from 150mm to 100mm (or 130mm to 90mm) via remote control, offering a more progressive spring rate.
The three modes are Climb Mode (lock-out rear and front), Traction Mode (traction mode rear, platform mode front), and Descent Mode (full travel rear and front).
