The suspension setup includes a Marzocchi 40 mm front fork and a Reiger 2-way hydraulic mono shock at the rear, providing 177 mm and 164 mm of travel respectively, which is essential for absorbing shocks and maintaining stability on rugged terrain. The braking system, featuring a single disc with a 4-piston caliper up front and a 2-piston caliper at the rear, ensures exceptional stopping power for those quick maneuvers needed when tackling tricky obstacles. **
