Tech
Tech is our 'thing'.
Our goal is to fully optimize pedal efficiency and wheel path in our suspension frames. (We also make some ripper hardtails)
ASTRIX PATENTED SUSPENSION
Our suspension system combines a PCA linkage design that provides a specific rising spring rate with a stable pedalling platform. The MOTOLINK isolates the shock from the rear system allowing the suspension to remain active but neutralize pedalling over a broad range of suspension travel. All Astrix Europe frames are built with this patented combination.
PCA (Parallel Control Arms)
PCA neutralizes pedal forces and manipulates an ideal wheel path for a no compromise suspension system. By the control arms remaining parallel to the Chain Torque Force, the force is supported by the arms and all of the input from your pedals is directed into the rear wheel for hardtail efficiency that remains active beneath you for a plush, controlled ride.
Motolink
Motolink mechanically manipulates the spring curve for an ideal rate. The system also eliminates shock shaft loading from lever arms rocking into the shock. This decreases the internal friction on the bushings and uneven loading of the seals, creating a longer and more reliable life for the shock.
Astrix Europe is rider owned and our frames are developed in the UK.
