Kyle Strait’s Custom GT Distortion Dual Slalom Bike

The Distortion slope/DS frame is reminiscent of the Independent Drivetrain design seen on the Fury DH bike, though it is in fact just a simple single pivot. Strait and GT teammate Tyler McCaul have done their own custom geometry with the Distortion team bikes; have a look at Kyle’s…

I have the distortion as well and it is an amazing bike. But the i-drive is made for pedalling up - which Kyle didn't do, winning the slalom.
