Cruxpearl Posted July 4, 2007 Share Revolutionary Independent Magnetic Suspension AnnouncedBicycle manufacturer Klein has announced the development of an Independent Magnetic Suspension (I.M.S.) for its new line of cross country bikes. The revolutionary frame comes in two pieces, and features innovative Independent Magnetic Suspension technology developed in Germany. Apparently the frame is magnetic, and the power of magnetic attraction and repulsion ensures that the front and rear of the bicycle remain upright, yet allowing sufficient flex to soak up bumps. The photograph below shows a protype of the frame being used in race conditions for the first time. Production is expected to begin in 2005. You need to look very closely to appreciate the mystery and marvel of this technology. http://www.geocities.com/verdrahciretop/bikes1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdoardoBianchi Posted July 4, 2007 Share What will the frame be called? Hardtail - no. Softtail - no. JUST TAIL! And the model? "Justtail Timberlake" good to see the initial tests were completed at Dirtopia (very kind of the US of A folks to raise SA to such prominance)EdoardoBianchi2007-07-04 10:55:40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
