The Street Machine Gt's Suspension fork
You can order your Street Machine Gt as a complete bike or as a frame kit with different suspension forks. The standard model is equipped with the Spinner Grind 2 fok. This fork features a steel spring suspension unit and an adjusting knob to preload the springs. The optional Meks AC forks have additional hydraulic damping.
With both forks you can use strong V-brakes or the almost friction-free, Magura hydraulic brakes.
You can equip your recumbent with a front disc brake. These are particularly useful if you are a regular winter rider since they offer an evenly good braking performance and will work even with wet or frozen-over rims. Also on long, heavily loaded mountain descents the disc brake prevents overheating of the rims.
