The front suspension features an upside-down telescopic hydraulic fork by Marzocci, offering 260 mm of travel for plush handling over rough terrains, while the rear suspension employs a progressive ‘soft damp’ hydraulic single shock absorber for a comfortable ride. With front and rear disc brakes equipped with 2-piston calipers, this bike delivers reliable stopping power for confident handling. Furthermore, a seat height of 870 mm provides an accommodating position for riders of varying heights, ensuring comfort and control. **
