Slopestyle is perhaps the most exciting new cycling discipline seen in years. When creating the Konig, our goal was to channel the energy of a great run into the engineering and style of our slopestyle frame. Getting off the ground, landing in one piece (at any angle) and getting the bike where you need it to be in a split second all require that a bike be light, strong and maneuverable - three things that define the Konig.
The Konig is far more than a kick-ass looking bike. For starters, its dual link rear suspension system has been meticulously designed to optimize performance and to resist all torque and lateral loading. The frame’s washer-less pivot system and Sure-Lock pivots are an easy-to-service breakthrough sure to stoke mechanics and riders alike. Getting the details right from the start is important to us - from recessed shock mounting hardware to the Konig’s super high-end 12 layer paint process, we have made every effort to ensure the Konig’s place at the top.
A summary of the Konig’s features include:
For dirt-jumpers ready to go to full suspension, riders with big bikes looking for something smaller and more maneuverable, or for elite slopestyle athletes, the Konig is purpose designed to be the ultimate bike.
The Corsair Konig will be available in October of 2007. If you are interested in learning more about our slopestyle bike, a detailed technical explanation of our frame design has been posted on our website at www.corsairbikes.com. Or visit us at upcoming events including Crankworx, EuroBike, or Interbike.
