The Paratu CP is our latest full-power frame kit fitted with the new
Maxon Bikedrive Air S system.
The most natural feeling engine due to its sophisticated torque sensor, paired with the no drag ride feel when freewheeling 90Nm, 620W. and 400% max assist, this engine rips and combines full power feel with an 88% efficiency rate that gives you the same range as a 24Kg bike with a 700Wh. battery in all conditions! Still feel this is not enough ad the 250Wh. Range Extender and add 40% more range instantly, which then makes you outperform most of your big bike buddies.
What does CP stand for:
Concentric Pivot, meaning the horst link has moved from in front of the axle to the center of the axle! This removes all brake forces out of the suspension movement enhancing your ride big time.
The CP Platform: Engineered for Enduro Speed and Maximum Control
The CP platform is our dedicated chassis for aggressive
all-mountain / Enduro riding, and it caters to all demands of real enduro
racing.
The rear Travel can be modified by using any 230 eye-to-eye shock, and the following travel options can be achieved:
230-57.5 = 145mm
230-60 = 150mm
230-62.5=160mm
230-65 = 165mm
29” F&R wheels (flip chip in 29 position)
or
29” Front/ 27.5" Rear (flipchip in 27.5 position.
The CP suspension layout gives you highly controlled, smooth, and plush
bottomless rear travel. Every aspect of
the CP kinematics has been optimized for stability at speed, efficient power
transfer, and absorbing the biggest impacts the trail can throw at you. It's
built to chase seconds between the tape or freeride and conquer the most
demanding descents.
Frame features:
Cable routing is either internal or external, your choice, and all cables enter via the non-drive side.
Reach adjust headset cups for -5 / +5mm reach changes. This feature works great when you fork up from 160 to 170mm, as then your reach gets smaller and you can go to the same position you're used to ride again.
Complete Bike build weights can vary depending on specs, from 17.5 to 18.5 Kg for full Enduro builds!! Trail builds can be lighter, way lighter. change tires from 1300gr each to 900 sheds 800gr., lighter wheels will do about 400gr. Carbon handlebar and stem, and a lighter dropper deduct another 400gr easily. So 18.5 - 1600 is 16.9Kg is easy to achieve here.
Paratu: spoken as Paratoen
the meaning of this word is "lightning" in the Taiwanese indigenous Bunun language.
We feel this bike is "Fast as Lightning"
90Nm. Torque, 620W. power and 400Wh battery giving you "SILENT" 400% Assist while staying well under 19KG.
the New Maxon engine
the new AIR S engine is an amazing piece of swiss engineering with 90Nm Torque, 620W. power and 400% assist in a compact 2kg chassis
The bigger battery
The new 400Wh. battery weigs just 1.8Kg. and is just a fraction bigger then our previous 250Wh version yet gives us way more range
Still have range anxiety?
In case you want to ride even longer the 1.4Kg. 250Wh. range extender can be added to the frame so you have a 650Wh. total capacity and ride even longer.
technical details
horizontal shock layout
we went to a horizontal shock layout for a few reasons such as lower standover and lower seat tubes possible which gives more space for longer dropper posts and more freedom to move around
Concentric Pivot
we moved over to a concentric pivot design to remove all brake bump chatter from the ride feeling
large volume rear shocks
we moved back to metric shocks and use longer bigger volume shocks then our competition in order to make sure they don't overheat
proven Kinematics
K-Volve
Our K-Volve kinematics have proven to work extremely well and have the planted bottomless feel needed to conquer every trail either up- or downhill.
Proven Geometry
G-Volve
Our G-Volve geometry redefined for pure trail and enduro use for theCP frames.
Improved sizing & fit
S-Volve
We introduced S-Volve in order to reduce sizes initially which worked out well due to the longer reaches and have further enhanced this by adding the new Reach adjust headsets and headtube that allow 0/-5/+5 positions which works extremely well when you fork up from 150-170 etc.
