Xcite + Kilo 2012 - 29er
Xcite 29" + Kilo 29"
Everybody is speaking about the 29ers - now you can get it at german:A.©. Have a look at our new 29er product range.
Xcite 29er
Xcite is the telescopic fork series from german:A.©. During conception of Xcite, our main goal was to create the lightest single bridge design available, while still achieving the best stiffness.
In typical german:A.© manner we did not stick with the conventions used in standard bike design, but questioned everything and got our fingers on every possible solution: 36 mm Stanchions, "Muscle-Design", "Straight-Dropout-Design" - you can get this features in our new 29 inch versions.
Our Xcite 29er is available in 100 mm (axle to crown length = ca. 515 mm) and 120 mm (axle to crown length = ca. 535 mm) travel.
Kilo 29er
The new models 2012 of our well used german:A.© - Kilo fork is another evolutionary step towards a perfect system. Of course such a system ships with many advantages for success in race competitions, where every percent of functionality and every gram might be the difference between losing and winning. 29 inch is a big theme over the next years.
Our Kilo 29" is available:
Kilo No1, Kilo 1.2 and Kilo 1.3 (90 mm).
