World news: New Kamel XXV
Special Monty 25th anniversary series
Monty shows his new star model: The Kamel XXV, a special series to commemorate the Monty 25 anniversary
After a year of great success of the kamel models and the World Biketrial Championship to be held within weeks, Monty shows a special model. The frame keeps the same geometry of the former one but with some modifications which make the new Kamel XXV to be a bike even more competitive.
At first sight, one can see the improving design of the upper tube and the inferior one, giving to the frame a much resistance and durability.
The fork has been one of the items most important to have in mind towards this new model, made in 7005-T6 aluminium with the tube in one sole piece, therefore getting a fork with the highest tensile strength.
Another important item as well: The transmission by reducing weight considerably and keeping the relation by fitting a new freewheel of 15 teeth and 6 pawls, waterproof system in Cr-Moly and the rear cog of 10 teeth and with a lightened and reinforced chain. Everything: Monty exclusive design.
On modifying the freewheel and the cog, some other items had to be modified as well: The cranks and the skiplate closer to the freewheel, getting, in this way, a much clearance from the ground with respect to the former models.
The rear chain tubes of the frame have also been improved with double reinforcement, following the whole bicycle design.
All these innovations + the Golden & Black decoration given to the bicycle to commemorate the Monty 25 anniversary makes this model of only 8.695 kg. to be unique for the competition.
The new Kamel XXV corresponds to a limited edition of only 250 units. The bicycle is provided with a plaque with the series number and the owner's name engraved, en plus, with an exclusive t-shirt of the Monty 25th Anniversary.
This exclusive model is to be available on September 15, 2009 and Monty expects with this model to continue with the hegemony in the competitions as till now by being World Biketrial Champion since 1992. |
