The new Tusk Carbon single plug chain stay resembles the typical design of the Tusk fork. The single plug chain stay, equipped with a single central connection to the BB shell, provides a great torsional stiffness to the rear triangle of the frame. The section variation from the BB shell to the dropouts end is enriched by a special rib that harmonizes all the shapes and maintains the lateral stiffness on the whole length of the chain stay.
The stiffness characteristics, which are enhanced also by the high profile shape of the blade section near the BB shell, are also increased by the straightness of the blades of the vertical stay.
This element is made of overlapped layers of T700 and HM unidirectional Carbon fibre which guarantee a high strength and extreme lightness. The frame is assembled through the special CNC Aluminium BB shell or through the new cast Steel version. Both BB shells are equipped with the single plug central connection which increases the stiffness of the frame.
