Measurements made on the frame used for the review showed minimal variations from the specification values. Approximately 2 grams more weight (307 grams) and a slightly more headward balance (322 mm).
The frame features Impact Shield Technology (IST), which consists of the injection of proprietary foam into the handle and stems. This new technology strengthens the frame and at the same time allows the absorption of negative impact vibrations acting as a shield (hence the name of the technology) to protect the arm.
The handle is available from size L1 to size L4.
