The rear suspension features a specially tuned Reiger mono shock, offering 298 mm of travel that absorbs impacts effortlessly. Coupled with precise braking capabilities—thanks to the wave discs and dual-piston calipers on the front—you'll find yourself confidently navigating through tight corners and rugged trails. **
