The Evolution and Revolution of Hardtail Bikes
Einstein said the more energy a body projects, the greater its curvature. Just like the frame of the new Bravo, which flexes to provide greater efficiency, stability, and traction to the bicycle, maximizing the rider's abilities.
Bravo is a new bicycle concept that combines the most important qualities of hardtail bikes with the most outstanding features of full-suspension bikes. It is the perfect balance between speed and stability, and between agility and traction.
The Bravo creates a new performance standard through a novel microsuspension system that involves both the controlled flex of a new, cutting-edge seatpost and the flex of the seatstays of the rear triangle via a pivot point integrated into the frame itself.
It meets the needs of all those cyclists who don't require the full absorption of a conventional full-suspension bike. Those who value qualities such as lightness, agility, and mechanical simplicity, as well as comfort, enhanced traction, and optimal riding stability.
HIGH MODULUS CARBON
Bravo's frame is made of carbon. This makes it stiffer in the areas where it's needed and allows it to flex in a controlled manner in areas of greater contact with the ground.
Bravo frames incorporate an internal polystyrene expander. This increases the pressure exerted on the fibers, allowing for optimal carbon stratification. This system results in a high-quality frame with a much more compact and fatigue-resistant structure.
The SOFTEX system works as a system between the flex of the exclusive Tibia seat post and the flex of the laminated seat stays to convert flex and energy into speed, controlled by a FullBall pivot point integrated into the frame.
The performance has been adapted and optimized for the different frame sizes, adjusting the angles, the center of gravity, and the measurements for the best performance and behavior of the cyclist-bicycle unit.

The new Bravo is designed for use in all circumstances and for XCO users with different profiles and riding styles.
The seatpost clamp on the new Bravo frame is located at the junction of the seat tube and the top tube. Being integrated into the frame itself, it remains protected from dust and dirt, and features an internal wedge system that increases friction with the seatpost and reduces the possibility of over-tightening the clamp itself.
The frame building process involves cooking three separate parts: the front triangle mold, the chainstays, and the seatstays. This technique provides greater performance to the frame as a whole.
Tibia seatpost designed for carbon fibers to absorb terrain imperfections.
Specific carbon lay-up and geometry for each size, achieving the best performance regardless of the user's weight or height.
Double-height seatstays for maximum rigidity in the bottom bracket area and optimal shock absorption near the rear wheel axle.
The modern geometry of the new Bravo highlights the qualities of the SOFTEX suspension system. Its super short chainstays of only 420mm and a slacker head tube angle (67.5° in size M) are just the tip of the iceberg in terms of the deep development and performance-oriented focus of the bike.
The new Bravo is designed for use in all circumstances and for XCO riders of different profiles and riding styles.
This is why it can accommodate tires up to 2.40" thanks to generous tire clearance in the seatstays and chainstays.
