Sun 27th May, 2018 @ 3:30 pm
You won’t want to miss this! Known for his outlandish biking adventures David Cachon puts a lot of strain on his bikes, and to celebrate his new rig we’ve got a ton of glossy photos to show you. Check out the goods right here…
I present the new Kross Moon, it is a customized version with the pieces of my sponsors and that give it a character even more explosive if possible. It is a great downhiller, its suspension system absorbs from small irregularities to the most beastly impacts, without removing that “punch” so necessary when pedaling.
Its red color does justice to its character. Red symbolizes power, action, color that is associated with vitality, ambition and passion. Red also brings self-confidence, courage and an optimistic attitude towards life. Success, triumph, war, blood, strength, take action and reach your goals.
Among all the accessories we can discover some as exotic as the new Alchemist X-Sense wheels. Manufactured in carbon, they have an absorption zone inside the rim, they dont have holes inside it and their edges are studied to avoid breaking in case of a strong impact. The new prototype of Vee Tire tires for an enduro / aggressive use are great, its tacking is very versatile and its rubber mixture makes it super sticky in any situation.
