TiMoRe 609: Motorcycle Rear Suspension

    Development of a new motorcycle rear suspension for the moto2 championship.

    In 2009 and 2010, COMATEC collaborated with Redblue Motorbike for the development of a motorcycle for the moto2 Championship. After completing almost all mathematical models of components of the motorbike, COMATEC mainly dealt with development of the rear suspension, consisting of a swing arm made entirely of composite materials with revolutionary kinematics. 

    This approach, which will be the subject of patents, represents a first in the competition world. The bike was presented in 2011 in the international fair of Milan and was a great success.
