With a mix of comfort performance & value the Ruby is the perfect steed for exploring roads that are well less than ideal. The frame is among the lightest that weve ever made & its been constructed from our superlative FACT 9r carbon fibre. Its stiffness levels are also excellent & compared to the SL4 iteration of yesteryear youll experience a whole new faster & more efficient geometry. Through some engineering sorcery however weve managed to keep the same fit feel & position that weve all come to love from the SL4s Womens Endurance Geometry. Of course youre probably thinking &34;&34;get on to the suspension thing up front.&34;&34; We call it Future Shock & essentially its a piston in the head tube with 20mm of travel. We developed this technology in partnership with McLaren Applied Technologies & the result of this are a host of drastic performance improvements namely in the vertical compliance department. Without giving a physics lecture we found that focusing on vertical compliance instead of fork splay meant that we could improve smoothness speed & comfort in one fell swoop. & of all the bikes that weve tested with our Rolling Efficiency Model the new Ruby outperforms anything on the market. Topping off the lightweight frame & Future Shock technology is a predominantly Shimano component spec hassle-free Tektro Spyre mechanical disc brakes & womens-specific touch points that are sure to keep you rolling worry-free for many miles to come. Featuring our Rider-First Engineered design that ensures every frame size has the same legendary responsiveness & smooth ride quality that youd expect from a Ruby. The FACT 9r frameset is exceptional in every way offering the ideal blend of light overall weight & targeted stiffness. Meanwhile the all-new Future Shock &34;suspension&34; system at the cockpit delivers a revolutionary degree of comfort & control. The Ruby Disc fork is built from our extraordinary FACT carbon fibre for supreme stiffness strength & reactivity while a thru-axle design only stands to bolster all of the above.
