Technical Features:
A.C.M. Frame
- Anatomically correct design
- Carbon fibre epoxy matrix
- Rigid and lightweight, impact distributing structure
Carbon fibre injection molding process creates a strong, lightweight, rigid structure to help withstand forces and protect the knee. Ergonomically designed frame for an improved intimate feel for the bike.
Asymmetrical-Glide Hinge
- Tracks the natural "rolling-gliding" motion of the knee joint
- Asymmetrical design alows each hings to set properly at the knee joint
- Allows for automatic tibia adjustment of lower frame
- Adjustable extension regulator from 0 to 40 degrees
The only hinge ever developed that can contour the inside of a leg at an oblique angle to the outside hinge. This allows for a low profile fit. Simulates the natural knee motion of flexion (bending) and extension (straightening) and automatically aligns /locates /positions /the tibia (shin bone) for a proper fit. Prevents slipping and positioning of the frames on the leg and has a "free" non-restrictive motion. Auto aligning allows for the frame to automatically locate the correct angle of the users lower leg.
