Anti-Squat: Effortless Ascends

Tired of feeling like you’re pedaling through peanut butter every time the trail points upwards? We felt that too. So, we got to work and engineered our Hidden Link System with class-leading anti-squat capabilities to keep your ride feeling sprightly, no matter the gradient. This ensures that your pedal power translates directly to forward motion, so climbs feel more “whoa” and less “woe.” It’s all about keeping your energy on the trail, where it belongs.

Anti-Rise: Descend with Confidence

For those who live for the downhill rush, we’ve baked in some seriously impressive anti-rise technology into our system. This means when it’s time to drop anchor and slow things down, your bike remains as stable as a seasoned sea captain in a storm. No more unnerving weight shifts or back-end surprises – just smooth, controlled descents that let you channel your inner downhill demon, worry-free.

Progressive Suspension: Tailored to the Trail

Here’s where our holistic approach really shines. The Hidden Link System isn’t just about reacting to the trail; it’s about being one with it. Our progressive suspension curve ensures a ride that’s plush and forgiving over the chatter but ready to stand firm against the big hits. It’s a nuanced balance, ensuring you get a ride that’s both buttery smooth and ruggedly reliable, adapting seamlessly to whatever the trail throws your way.

At Patrol Mountain, we’re not just in the business of building bikes; we’re in the art of crafting experiences. Every screw turned and every line drawn is done with you – the rider – in mind. Our holistic approach to the Hidden Link System means we’ve considered every aspect of your ride, from the exhilarating highs of the peaks to the heart-racing thrills of the descents.
