We worked hard on this design using a current PVD frame and did a bit of testing and changes before drawing the frame up. Max is on the Whole Athlete Team. His coach, Dario Fredrick put in in some time with the fit here to ensure that the handling and performance goals that Pete and Max put together would still produce plenty of power for racing up the hill.
