The Stay Strong For Life V5.1 — Pro and Cruiser sizes. Same V5 platform that's raced at UCI World Cup level, in new colourways covering Pro through Cruiser Pro XXL. If you're already familiar with the V5, you know what this is: the Race DVSN 5-point dropout, BB86, tapered 1-1/8" to 1.5" head tube, and rear-access chain tensioners as standard. If you're not familiar yet, here's what matters.
The Race DVSN 5-point dropout system fixes the disc hanger and wheel insert directly to the frame at five contact points rather than the industry standard two. That extra rigidity under disc braking loads is something you feel immediately — no rear-end flex when you squeeze the lever hard, which translates directly to shorter stopping distances and more confidence going into turns.
