3. Cruzbike Sofrider and Freerider Overview
The Cruzbike is distinguished by a drive triangle mounted forward of the front forks and which turns in
unison with the front fork. This added structure increases the turning inertia of the steering function
and so calls for the rider to become familiar with its feel and its responsiveness.
Front Triangle and Fork
The front triangle takes the form of a tetrahedron and is pivoted at each corner to allow the
suspension fork to operate. These same pivots also allow the length of the telescoping front tube
(TFT) to be varied to accommodate riders of differing leg lengths.
