We all benefit from comfort but all too often it comes at the expense of performance. Not anymore. With the Ruby Comp you get a next-level comfort from a design thats nothing short of revolutionary.
The frame is among the lightest that weve ever made and its been constructed from our superlative FACT 10r carbon fibre. Its stiffness levels are also off the charts and compared to the SL4 iteration of yesteryear youll experience a whole new faster and more efficient geometry. Through some engineering sorcery however weve managed to keep the same fit feel and position that weve all come to love from the SL4s Womens Endurance Geometry. Of course youre probably thinking "get on to the suspension thing up front."
We call it Future Shock and essentially its a piston in the head tube with 20mm of travel. We developed this technology in partnership with McLaren Applied Technologies and the result of this are a host of drastic performance improvements namely in the vertical compliance department. Without giving a physics lecture we found that focusing on vertical compliance instead of fork splay meant that we could improve smoothness speed and comfort in one fell swoop. And of all the bikes that weve tested with our Rolling Efficiency Model the new Ruby outperforms anything on the market. Lastly we specd it with awesome components like Shimano 105 shifting hydraulic disc brakes and a womens-specific saddle.
The FACT 10r frameset is exceptional in every way offering the ideal blend of light overall weight and targeted stiffness. Meanwhile the all-new Future Shock "suspension" system at the cockpit delivers a revolutionary degree of comfort and control.
A Ruby Disc fork is built from our extraordinary FACT carbon fibre for supreme stiffness strength and reactivity while a thru-axle design only stands to bolster all of the above.
Power to the pedals is provided by the exceptional Praxis Zayante alloy crankset. Its stiff and efficient and the ramping of the chainrings ensures beautiful shifts between rings.
Comes equipped with a 25lbs spring installed (color: black weight: medium) and also includes both 13lbs (color: blue weight: soft) and 40lbs (color: yellow weight: firm) springs that can be installed to match the terrain youre riding.
