Its robust chassis consists of a 3-inch, 120-wall hard steel backbone, meticulously crafted through hand TIG welding, ensuring both strength and lightweight performance. The braking system is equally remarkable, featuring dual Beringer 4-piston AEROTEC radial calipers at the front and a single 2-piston Brembo monobloc caliper at the rear, delivering exceptional stopping power.
