SPI2

Stable Pivot Interface 2

Simpler, stronger and lighter

SPI2 is the recent upgrade of our ever-popular, tried and tested SPI interface. SPI [Stable Pivot Interface] is the single pivot design which we have used for many years throughout our suspension line-up. Building on that system, SPI2 incorporates revisions to the proven SPI: it uses refined pivot caps which eliminate the need for a pivot axle by incorporating them into the cap itself. SPI2 is simpler, stronger and lighter than SPI.

XPI

Simple Geometry Adjustment with XPI

Simple and effective geometry adjustment

In 2011 the XPI will be offered as a standard feature on the Izimu frames and will be available as an optional after-market upgrade for the 2011 180mm freeride frames.

XPI offers riders simple and effective geometry adjustments in a lightweight, neat and compact design. Using an offset eccentric at the heart of the design, the XPI pivot allows riders to fine-tune chainstay length [wheelbase], headtube angle and bottom bracket height within a wide range of usable parameters.

These adjustments can be made quickly and easily with the need of only two allen keys. The XPI pivot cap has four settings for base-level adjustments, with a standard fork setup.

Standard setting

Slacker head angle, lower BB, longer chainstay

Standard setting, shorter chainstay

Steeper head angle, higher BB, shorter chainstay

BB Height and wheelbase can be fine-tuned across the settings above
