"Specialized Unveils Game-Changing 170mm Enduro Bike with UBB Suspension Design"

Specialized has been granted a patent for their Under Bottom Bracket (UBB) suspension system, which allows for independent fine-tuning of key ride dynamics components. The patent describes a frame with 172mm of travel and the ability to adjust suspension characteristics for different terrains. The system also allows for field-adjustable suspension and the use of different brake mount designs to tune anti-rise characteristics. The suspension layout may potentially be used in the new Enduro model, which has not been updated in over four years. The patent mentions the possibility of using metal or composite materials for the frame construction.
