The 2016 Lycan has transformed into a weapon for marathons in its last stage of development. The latest stroke of genius from KTM Bike Industries is called Straight–Line–Link (SLL). In combination with the Rocker Blade, it revolutionizes the concept of rear suspensions. This technology offers a very sensitive response to small bumps and a high absorption of big hits, while keeping high pedaling efficiency. The development team invested a lot of time to shape the rocker blade extremely rigid to torsion. To conclusively accomplish the concept of the Straight–Line–Link Technology (SLL), we deliberately set no bearing point at the dropout, which maximizes stiffness. Through this suspension-system the Fully achieves an astonishing amount of propulsion in the 125 mm class, which was originally reserved for Racefullies. The compact and rigid front triangle with its sloping geometry ensures a lower stand-over height. An improved bike handling was realized through a more flat head tube angle, steeper seat tube angle and longer top tube combined with shorter stem. To add the final touch to this harmonious concept, the ball bearings are bigger dimensions which results in better strength and durability.
