In the current 2004 season, MTB Cycletech already presented the versatile full-suspension "Opium". For 2005, the finely functioning four-bar linkage developed by Martin Schütz will also be available in more affordable versions. The "Opium 2.0" models are intended as a kind of starter kit: Shimano's new LX groupset is responsible for shifting and braking, Manitou provides comfort with a "Black Platinum" suspension fork and a lightweight "Radium RL" suspension strut, and the customer can choose between a Rapidfire and a Dualcontrol version ? very nice, this choice! Incidentally, these affordable "Opium" models come in matt black or silver instead of all white.
