An entirely new kind of front fork / handlebar unit ("X Forks") was developed for the extremely stiff monocoque frame. The fork blades pass the fork bridge up to handlebar height and make a conventional stem and handlebar unnecessary.
The aerobar is installed onto the aerofoil profiled fork blades at the height required by the rider.
The risk of fractures is decreased by the additional inclusion of Kevlar in the laminary layers. The saddle tube also has an aerodynamic, wing-profile shape and is also made of carbon fiber. The seat height can be adjusted through 8 cm.
Every Cheetah is made-to-measure according to a personal measurement sheet and is therefore suitable for riders of every size. Personal preferences regarding components and level of equipment can also be respected.
