Angel has proved he and the bike have the speed necessary to win after qualifying third last weekend at Lenzerheide. Unfortunately, a spill took him out of contention but he’s back on it for Leogang where historically he’s performed well. Although they are moving quickly through prototypes using different geometry and kinematics, Angel keeps his setup relatively the same throughout the season.

The feedback from Angel was great from the very first pedal stroke, which was kind of surprising and satisfying – we were in the right direction from the beginning. |

The kinematics are quite similar to the previous Ever and the current Mith / Burn / Dash lineup. The progression is quite huge, translating into an ultra small bump sensitivity and to be “sagged” at 35% initially. |
