Geometry
Finding the Perfect Balance.
Since its introduction three years ago the Motolite has established new benchmarks in suspension performance. This bike was originally developed in an effort to find the perfect balance between short and long travel. It had to deliver Racer X-like pedaling and handling performance and at the same time have the ability to handle nearly six-inch forks and coil-over rear shocks. Based on the numerous awards the bike has garnered it’s pretty safe to say that finding balance has been achieved.
Not one to rest on our laurels, we’ve taken things one step further this year by delivering one of the lightest, stiffest frames in its category. The new 2008 Motolite features a re-designed (T.U.F. Tubing) front triangle that shaves close to 10% out of the front triangle while increasing stiffness and improving the overall handling of the bike. Combined with the triple-butted, hydro-formed down tube, quad-bearing main pivot and beefy clevis joint, the Motolite has few equals.
Titus Unlimited Forming – T.U.F. Tubing is a unique tube forming process that delivers lightweight, butted tubes with a wide array of advanced shapes. This custom forming process provides designers with the ability to create precise butting profiles and strength characteristics that other forming processes cannot. The 6061 tubes are formed under air pressure and at extremely high temperatures where the material is at its most formable state. The end result - unique shapes that deliver elegant lines and superior performance.
