Technical specifications
Comfort
The passenger sits in a bucket seat while four suspension units absorb the movements of the terrain. The pilot has dedicated footrests to support the downhill. This arrangement allows the sensations to be shared while adapting the pace to the passenger and the chosen route.
Grip
Four 14-inch motorcycle wheels fitted with cross tyres ensure contact with the terrain. Their design is suited to downhill riding on varied trails. The pilot chooses the line and speed according to the terrain, ground conditions and the passenger's needs.
Braking
The Cimgo has four Brembo hydraulic disc brakes. Two independent circuits control the front and rear wheels. This design gives the pilot the means to manage speed during the downhill and is a central part of learning to pilot.
Safety
A roll bar protects the passenger and a lifeline connects the pilot to the braking system. If the pilot falls, it automatically applies the front brakes. The system also serves as a parking brake. This equipment is used following the procedures taught during training.
Modularity
The seat detaches from the main frame with the passenger still seated. Its small wheels make it easier to move towards a lift. The frame's handlebar folds to reduce bulk. This design makes it possible to arrange access to certain lifts depending on the facilities and the site's procedures.
Transport
The Cimgo's handlebar folds down for easier transport. It is also handy for storage.
