Its ONE Wide Stance Fork widens the front end to manage the turbulence a spinning front wheel sheds onto the rest of the bike, while the Factor Integrated Barstem separates the handlebar mount from the steering axis, letting riders run an aggressive, forward position without the handling penalty of an overlong stem.
