Boom bikes enjoy several advantages over conventional
(double-diamond) designs. They are more aerodynamic, have superior handling characteristics
and are very comfortable. TITANFLEX
was inspired by the original Softride of
the late 1980's.
Both of these cantilevered-seat designs have evolved over the two last
decades.
