Optimal suspension performance in any situation
The F.O.L.D. chassis with 170 mm travel, which has been specially tuned to meet the demands of Enduro riding, provides a perfectly balanced mix: F.O.L.D. is extremely sensitive while being progressive enough to prevent a harsh bottom out. And there is still enough space for a bottle cage.
-
Lightweight and sturdy
Thanks to a super-lightweight and rigid carbon structure the full SAM frameset only weighs 2270 g. The perfect mix of high modulus and high strength carbon fibres makes the best balance between the minimum weight and maximum strength for advanced trail riding. Our tests ensure maximum strength significantly above the standard.
-
Nimble and sturdy
The SAM rolls on 27,5" wheels. As a result, the SAM rides agile and nimble even when cornering sharply. Especially when the terrain gets rougher, the 27,5" wheels offer an extra on stability for your enduro ride.
