The fully adjustable 48mm front forks and a Sachs rear suspension unit with remote preload adjustment offer a plush ride, regardless of the terrain. The combination of a lightweight tubular steel trellis frame and the single-sided aluminum swingarm contributes to the bike's agile handling and stability, making it a joy to ride on twisty roads or long-distance tours alike. **
