MULTI TOOL

To get you back on the trail fast, the Syncros MATCHBOX SL-CT Multi-Tool is hidden inside the frame covering most adjustments. There when you need it.

REAR AXLE TOOL

The bike is equipped with a rear axle tool which features a T25, T30 and a 6 mm allen key all in one. With these three options you can adjust all pivot hardware and nearly everything else there is to adjust on the bicycle.

DROPPER POST

Incredible dropper post compatibility and unlimited positioning possibilities thanks to the horizontal layout of the rear shock in combination with the Internal Suspension Technology. Meaning a 200mm travel dropper coupled with a slammed seat position is no problem for the LINKIN.

CHAIN MANAGEMENT

The bike also features chain management with an upper chainstay & seatstay protection and a chain guide to protect your bike and to keep things nice and quiet.

INTERNAL SUSPENSION TECHNOLOGY

Frame stiffness, lowest center of gravity and optimum shock performance are the key benefits to our Internal Suspension Technology. The condition of the rear shock has a significant impact on suspension performance. The shock is always protected from dirt, water and crashes to ensure it is functioning at its best. As a result, the bike benefits from better handling, longer shock service intervals and a more stable, confidence inspiring ride.

IST VP

With the shock placed internally, we are able to design an ultra-compact linkage system for low weight and high stiffness. The linkage is directly attached to the shock and mounted to an axle inside the frame, meaning the suspension pivots no longer must be constructed around the frame. This makes our link shorter than any other traditional suspension platform.

Using a Virtual Pivot linkage design improves the suspension feel, pedaling, and braking response to work with maximum efficiency. Our kinematic suspension curve gives supple small bump sensitivity and, therefore, exceptional traction characteristics, excellent support in the mid-stroke, and a controlled deep stroke for perfect bottom-out control.

REAR SHOCK

The LINKIN comes with either a FOX or ROCK SHOX shock option unlocking 150 mm or 135 mm of travel, both options featuring our patented NUDE Technology. Accessible mid-ride through the TracLoc System, the NUDE Technology enables an air volume adjustment to effect dynamic travel, making it the most innovative air shock on the market.

Accessing the shock is possible via a cover in the down tube area. This makes it easy to adjust rebound, compression, and shock pressure as well as access the cable of the TracLoc Suspension System. Shock bolts are easily accessible from the outside.

SHOCK LINKAGE

The LINKIN is available in 150 mm travel, as well as a sportier version with 135 mm of rear wheel travel. The travel options can be set by replacing the Shock Linkage at the bottom bracket without having to need to switch to a different shock. The different Shock Linkage gives the LINKIN the flexibility to have both travel options in one frame platform.

TRAVEL INDICATOR

Setting the right Sag can easily be done via a magnet-equipped travel indicator on the outside. The end stroke travel can also be checked on the smartly designed travel indicator for perfect bottom-out control.

TRACLOC

TracLoc manages the Sag effect in several ways. Whereas most systems only increase low-speed compression in an effort to gain pedaling efficiency, TracLoc allows you to change not only compression damping but also to change the spring curve, dynamically altering the geometry of the bike. In Traction Mode, the shock is not only firmer, but it has dynamically less travel. The bike sits higher, maintains a steep seat angle for those climbs, and becomes more agile. In addition, the LINKIN has a Lockout Mode for going up the steepest trails in the most efficient manner possible.

FLIP CHIP

Having the ability to tune the bottom bracket height and head angle allows you to optimize the geometry and handling for you and your trails. With the Flip Chip on the BOLD Variotec you can change the bottom bracket height by +/- 6.3 mm while changing the head angle by +/- 0.4 degrees, giving the LINKIN frame the availability to be customized off-the-shelf.

HEAD ANGLE ADJUST

You can adjust the head angle by effective +/- 1.0 degree slacker or steeper. This can be done by rotating the headset cups 180 degrees.
