Last Thursday night I was hanging out at Kinfoks after hiking the Manitou Incline and was talking to a couple mountain bikers. I found out that one of them has designed a new inverted 4 bar rear suspension and frame to go with it.
The new bikes are Solstice mountain bikes. They’re an all mountain bike so it’s designed to be lighter and climb better than a hard core downhill bike but still handle gnarly rocks and drops. Unfortunately the only camera I had was my iPhone and so the photos are poor. You can see better photos on the Solstice website.
Chuck, the inventor, and his friend Cory had just taken Cory’s Solstice mountain bike on it’s maiden ride. Hopefully I’ll be able to get a few rides in on one of the demo bikes soon and report back with how it rides and with more details on the bikes.
