Flattened SAVE cross-sections and sophisticated carbon layup on theFlash rear stays and seatpost act like a micro-suspension system,deflecting vertically to absorb trail shock, while staying extremelyrigid laterally for power transfer and confident corneringal keirin oragainst the city's fleet of cabbies.
BALLISTEC CARBON TECHNOLOGY:
Lighter and stiffer than aluminum, more dent-resistant than steel, thesuper tough BallisTec carbon can shake off rock strikes and impacts thatwould destroy Flash's lightweight competition.
SYSTEM INTEGRATION:
Ignoring the common "bolt-on" spec’ mentality, our System Integrationdesign approach ( Lefty fork, OPI Stem/Steerer, and Hollowgram Si SLcranks) produces an overall weight that our competitors can only dreamof.
