Video tip: Bold Cycles reveals the secret

How is the linkage of the shock, which is located in the seat tube of the Swiss newcomer Bold Cycles, technically solved? How is the shock heated by the trail rodeo cooled? A video sheds light on these questions - and there is also information on the prices of the innovative bikes.

Bold mountain bikes from the "Linkin Trail" series can be seen in the flesh for the first time from May 8 at the Bike Days in Solothurn. This is also when Vincent Droux and Oliver Kreuter's brand website goes live and the bikes can be ordered.

The young manufacturer based in Lengnau has now published a video: This shows the details of how the shock is positioned in the seat tube and how the power transmission from the rear triangle to the rear shock is solved. As air does not conventionally circulate inside a seat tube, developers Droux also have a solution in their quiver - see below.

What does the fun cost?
