AUTHOR Magnum 29 2016 - carbon frame

Mountain bike Author Magnum 29 will satisfy both pure XC racers, and hobby riders. Carbon twenty-nines become increasingly popular today in the World Cup and marathon routes because they combine light weight frame with the ability to run large 29inch wheels and cross over high inequality as nothing. Model Author Magnum combines the best from materials used in the frame construction and high-end components FOX FLOAT air fork, components set SHIMANO XT, 22 speed, hydraulic disc brakes SHIMANO XT, wheel set MAVIC CROSSMAX or tubeless kevlar tires Vittoria BARZO.

Great terrain skills, perfect 'climbing' ability and excellent adhesion guaranteed by the large wheels diameter and a contact between tires and the ground - reasons to prefer exactly diameter 29"are many and Magnum combines it the best way!

Used technologies

Almost zero material fatigue curve. Shock absorption - better ride comfort. Very low weight. These are the basic advantages of carbon as material. Carbon frames made by AUTHOR MONOCOQUE CARBON TECHNOLOGY are precisely "woven" from carbon fibbers. Thanks to the special shaping of each tube and strengthening critical parts creates a connection between the latest technologies in manufacturing carbon frames and requirements for sport-oriented riders. The used material is Japanese carbon TORAYCA, suppliers of carbon e.g. for F1 or for the production of Boeing aircrafts.
