BMC nanotech family grows to three
Abstract:
Swiss firm BMC embraced carbon nanotechnology last year with its SLC01 Pro Machine road frame and for 2007, the company has carried over the technology to two new mountain bike frames. The '07 Fourstroke 01 incorporates BMC's successful 100mm travel twin-link VPS suspension system into a brand-new carbon chassis. Molded carbon nanotube-reinforced carbon fiber composites are used for both the front and rear triangles to drop the complete frame weight to an impressive 1.9kg without shock, although the included DT Swiss SSD Carbon shock will only add approximately 150g.
