Tapered headtubes look better, are<br />

more durable and allow for even<br />

higher stiffness on the new glide.<br />

The 1 1/2″ steerer offers increased<br />

handling and steering safety even<br />

under full stress in challenging terrain.<br />

But this doesn’t have to increase the<br />

weight: sTevens only uses butted,<br />

thin-wall tubes, all of them designed<br />

using feM-calculations and tested for<br />

long-term durability.<br />

The suspension fork and the rear suspension with 140mm of travel harmonize<br />

in a way that opens up new possibilities. enhanced comfort, perfect traction,<br />

unrestrained propulsion. The new “Anti-squat” kinematics minimize pedal bob<br />

and allow you to bring your full power onto the trail.<br />

Technology<br />

The rear section is essential for greater straight line stability and torsional stiffness.<br />

The glide scores with its x12 through-axle system: perfect wheel suspension, enormous<br />

frame stiffness and clever postmount disc brake eyes. ideal counterpart in the front:<br />

the new 15mm qr through-axle system.<br />
