Market: Matthias Reichmann, development engineer at Solid Bikes, gives us a very interesting insight into the functionality and structure of the Solid Strike DH Bike 2015. In the video, Matthias clearly explains the technical details of the new downhill car from Freudenstadt.

Solid Bikes consistently relies on 2015 inch wheels for the Strike DH 27,5, even if the new bike could be ridden with 26 inch wheels with slight modifications. The bike has a steering angle of 62 degrees, the bottom bracket is a whopping -8 millimeters. The developer not only explains the Center Force Suspension System in theory, but also puts it into action on the rough slopes in Bad Wildbad.
