Team RTS

Race proven by Team GT speedsters around the globe, the world downhill championship design Team RTS is back for 1995 and faster than ever. When racing on the World Cup circuit, second best won'† cut it. To succood here means you're the best in the sport. And that's something at GT we don't take lightly. The USA made Team RTS (Rocker Tuned Suspension) 6061-T6 heat-treated aluminum frame incorporates race car suspension technology to provide the proper amount of chassis stiffness to constrain wheel movement, to give the Team RTS the advantage of full suspension with rigid frame acceleration. The suspension configuration of the RTS offers three distinct advantages: Anti-squat, Anti-dive and Adijstability The Anti-squat geometry allows the chain force to counteract the rearward weight transfer due to forward acceleration. It ensures the suspension stays topped out during normal riding thus preventing energy loss with no "bobbing". So when you're sprinting for the finish or climbing a technical section, you have optimum power transfer to the rear wheel. USA made 6061-T6 heat treted aluminum front/rear triangles.
