Structure of mechanism |
| Function |
The frame has a rear suspension whose four pivot bolts define four summits of a deformable parallelogram, creating a movement of circular translation of the rear part . The rear suspension is compressed when the variation of the distance between centres of the pedal and the rear wheel is not null. |
