The stork's youngest child

The German luxury brand Storck is presenting a prototype of the "Adrenic G1" at Eurobike. A new carbon full-suspension bike with a virtual pivot point, 120 millimetres of suspension travel and 27.5-inch wheels.

The Storck mountain bike department has been quiet for a long time. Now the German bike manufacturer is attracting attention with a new fully. At the moment, it is still a prototype of the "Adrenic G1". Its main feature is the massive, no-frills rocker arm. The rear triangle is supported by a virtual pivot point and offers 120 millimeters of suspension travel. Hardly noticeable, however, is the slight kink in the seat tube which raises the seat angle a little. Storck relies on 27.5-inch wheels for the wheel size.

In contrast to what we are used to from Storck mountain bikes, the "Adrenic G1" is surprisingly slim. The frame is said to weigh less than two kilograms. Beauty has its price, but it doesn't have to be overpriced. The frame kit is said to cost 2,499 euros. For the complete bike with Shimano XT equipment, you will have to fork out 4,398 and for the XTR version 5,498 euros. This fine piece should be available in spring 2014.
