Its Arens design twin spar frame provides superior rigidity and stability, while the dual A-arm front suspension with SVO technology and Öhlins piggyback rear suspension ensure a smooth ride over rough terrain. The braking system features single disc brakes with a 160mm diameter at the front and 180mm at the rear, providing reliable stopping power when it matters most.
