CharacterThe bike feels featherweight, razor-sharp, and utterly focused, rewarding precise inputs with incredible agility over the tightest, most technical terrain.
Not Ideal ForIt is not suitable for anyone wanting a comfortable seat, road-going capability, sustained speed, or a bike for carrying a passenger or luggage.
