Mako
Emotional engineering
Purest emotion born
from technology
The new MAKO is born from the maximum rationality, from the exhaustiveness of science, so that you can enjoy 100% of your most emotional, purest and most animal part. So that every time you go out on your bike, you have it all.
Innovation without limits
With its racing double suspension MAKO is now evolving into a revolutionary model with an integrated shock absorber that is also more capable, thanks to new suspension travels and optimised kinematics that improve its handling to limits that no one has ever imagined before.
Thanks to the STEALTH by Berria system, the entire suspension system on the new Mako is integrated and protected from external agents. Its clean aesthetics do not sacrifice its technical benefits and allows the mounting of a second bottle cage to improve your hydration while you reach the next level.
Mako is here to change the world of cycling thanks to its integrated shock absorber, new suspension travel and optimised kinematics that improve its performance to limits never before imagined.
The in-link integrated suspension system is an innovative semi-integrated shock absorber concept. It is designed for high performance in both technical XCO competitions and long Ultra-marathon races. With 113mm of travel, it is incredibly precise and maintains a light frame weight.
World-class technology
MAKO is made to obtain the best records in XCO, marathon or Down Country use, looking for the optimal balance between lightness, stiffness and a suspension kinematics that allows traction and avoids loss of energy in pedalling.
Esta tracción consigue una mayor protección del amortiguador, aumentando la estabilidad, especialmente a altas velocidades.
El modelo Mako BR utiliza carbono HM3X. En la zona central de la bicicleta se han conseguido nuevos estándares en rigidez torsional permitiendo un rendimiento de pedaleo, un tacto y una precisión de funcionamiento de la suspensión extremos.
El cuadro Mako 4 está construido con fibras Toray T700 y T800.
The new dimension of performance
The reactivity of the new bike is remarkable thanks to a rear chainstay that has been shortened by 5 mm compared to the previous generation model. All this, combined with a kinematics with high pedalling performance, gives the Mako 4 exceptional reactivity and energy conversion efficiency, enabling it to reach higher speeds in less time.
Grip and traction are guaranteed due to its compact suspension system and specific tuning on the shock absorber. Mako achieves a quick suspension return on technical terrain while keeping the wheel in contact with the ground without losing stability. Its short carriage combined with a progressive behaviour in the initial phase of the travel allows a permanent contact with the ground guaranteeing traction on climbs and on low grip terrain.
The kinematics and behaviour of the rear suspension have been optimised. The travel has been increased by 8 mm compared to the previous generation and is now 113 mm. The Mako allows a better utilisation of the travel with a feel that provides optimal rear wheel control and an optimal balance between traction and damping.
Virtually no pitching of the shock absorber from the SAG point (15-20% recommended) providing overall pedalling efficiency.
Monocoque construction
The Mako's frame is made using a monocoque consisting of no less than a set of 26 moulds that work internally and 2 external moulds that enclose the entire structure. This technology makes it possible to use Nanotech reinforced resins in the carbon, reduce the weight of the frame and guarantee the quality of the layering of the structure.
You won't want to stop
Whether at medium or high speed, you will drive faster and have a greater driving feeling that will awaken all the pleasure of riding thanks to its low centre of gravity.
Security
Descending technical areas more quickly and with more confidence is now easier thanks to the steering angle set at 67.5°.
Driving Feeling
Achieve optimal ergonomics in your sports riding with maximum comfort thanks to the spectacular Aguila handlebar for XCO or the Condor handlebar for trail in carbon monocoque.
Acceleration
Get up to speed quickly thanks to a short rear chainstay of just 430mm and an advanced 76° saddle angle.
