Bimota Tesi.3D

Post by DarcShadow » Sat Feb 02, 2008 6:33 pm

I stopped in at Eursport today and they have the Bimota Tesi.3D sitting on the floor. If you haven't see one of these things I suggest stopping in and taking a look.

A bike with no front forks is just strange looking.

The owner of the shop said that there were only 50 being made worldwide and only 12 coming to the states.

He aslo said that it rides and feels just like a normal bike. The one difference is that the suspension doesn't get loaded like a normal bike does under hard braking and that because of that you can break a lot later into a turn and break harder while in the turn and leaned over.

It'll be interesting to see if any other companies pick up the design.
