It is built around an ALS twin tube cradle steel frame with a traditional 40 mm fork on the front with 130 mm of travel and adjustable twin shocks on the rear with 97 mm wheel travel.
As for braking, the bike packs a 320 mm floating disc with a four-piston Brembo caliper on the front wheel and a 260 mm floating disc coupled to a two-piston caliper on the rear.
