The PronghornTHE STORY

The PronghornPronghorn Racing is a Danish bicycle manufacturer named after the Pronghorn antelope, a creature that has been clocked at speeds over 100 km per hour and the only mammal that can hold the pace over a longer periods of time.

The story behind Pronghorn Racing“We at Pronghorn take a low-key approach to brand recognition, unlike brands that emblazes their name on every available surface of a frame or component.”

“Our bikes stands out in a crowd, not only because of all the numbers on the tubes, but also due to our patent pending “Anti Power Loss System” rear suspension system. “The word on the street isthat the above-the-top-tube shock position allows for increased lateral rigidity and less bobbing. Your training partners will turn heads, not only because you are riding in front but also because the bike looks different.”

Page 5: Pronghorn Racing Poduct Catalogue 2010-2011

The SystemA.P.L.S

Anti Power Loss SystemThe patent pending Anti Power Loss System (A.P.L.S.) developed by Pronghorn Racing consists of a series of highly innovative design features and technologies. Together, these provide a significantly more efficient way to get from A to B – faster.

This unique system consists of a specially designed linkage with the shock mounted above the top tube, designed to reduce power loss both on the flat and uphill. This top mounted shock makes for a more rigid rear triangle. The combination with the new linkage design ensures a straight push on the shock, cutting down on friction.

This set-up also means that you don’t need an additional pro-pedaling shock – a huge cost and weight saver that

also boosts performance by reducing bobbing.

A shock in this position also gives you easy access to lock outs while riding, and does away with any need for remote lockout access systems. The Pronghorn Racing A.P.L.S. system let’s you use just the type of shock you prefer. The A.P.L.S. setup fea-tures a special reinforced seat stay with the rear dropout section struc-turally integrated.

This gives greater strength and ena-bles you to use the horst link more efficiently. This unique design meansthat we have been able to move the horst link closer to the bottom bracket. The payoff is that you lose less power when pedaling over rough terrain.

Warranty and Crash replacementTHE TERMS

Costumer securityAs the ultimate quality check Pronghorn works with independent carbon and alloy experts to continu-ously evaluate our frame quality, and to verify the most complex warranty cases.

Through X-Ray we identify weaknessesdown to even the smallest fracture before or after any incidents, and with an accuracy of more than 99% point out the real cause for an eventual incident. This gives our costumers the best possible comfort when buying and riding Pronghorn.

The testRadiography is a Non-Destructive Examination method that uses X-ray and Gamma-ray for detecting internal imperfections or defects.

Pronghorn TOP of the class“We have done extensive research using X-ray nondestructive testing technique (NDT) and studied several Pronghorn PR6 Carbon (also carbon/alloy combinations) frames, and we have rated them with a 8.0 on a 0 to 10 scale (10 beingthe highest score).

From several manufactures in the world we have checked the frame quality using X-ray (also before, during and after the frames were used in the field).

At this moment the highest score for a frame of any of the checked manufac-turers, was an 8. At this moment thereare only a few manufacturers, who have frames in their program (which where checked using X-ray) that reach the high quality standard of the Pronghornframe.”

The framePR6–XC CARBON

About the frameThe PR6-XC Carbon frame is designed to go as fast as possible from point A to B. It offsets in Formula 1 technology and thinking and build on the specific demands of Pro riders: low weight, no power loss, durable and fast climbing.

The factsThe PR6-XC Carbon is manufactured using the latest carbon technology and features 100 mm A.P.L.S rear travel and is optimally matched with a 100 to 120 mm front suspension.

Very simple pivot design allows for longer durability and requires no special tools for maintenance.

Who will benefitHardtail or full suss riders that wants a faster performing machine for XC Racing or XC marathon. A perfect 24h companion.

Customers sayIt really rides like a hard tail uphill and afull suspension downhill.

Frame descriptionPR6–XC CARBON

Special MoldingThe XC Carbon frame is made with a special patented technology: Smooth Wall Inside (SW). Instead of traditional carbon molding SW uses Latex hosing for molding and not plastic as normally used. The result is a smoother inner surface, creating a more even stress distribution, increased strength and lower weight.

The framePR6-130

If you could only have one bike this would be it!

About the frameThe PR6-130 is an all-in-one frame and the start of a new breed of frames form Pronghorn.The 130 is built on the same principles as the PR6 XC and XC Carbon for agile handling and speed, and of cause the A.P.L.S. system but a completely different geometry: Longer frame and a more slack head tube results in a more comfortable and forgiving riding style for the Marathons or Alp-tours.

The factsThe PR6-130 features 130 mm A.P.L.S. rear travel and is optimal matched with a 130 to 140 mm front suspension.Very simple pivot design allows for longer du-rability and no special tools for maintenance.

Who will benefitMarathon races, trail to Alp weekends - this bike will match your needs.

New features• Post mount for rear brake caliber • New internal cable routing for a more linear routing at pivot points • Press Fit 30 bottom bracket shell • Syntace X12 rear axel system• Tapered head tube for a greater stiffness. (Can also be used with a 1 1/8 inch non- tapered fork stem when using the correct conical ring)

The framePR6-HARDTAIL

About the frameAs with our full suspension XC series, this hardball is designed to go as fast as possible from point A to B. Low weight, short race geometry and low positioning makes this frame super fast on the track. In fact this is one of the lightest hardtails on the market. However low weight alone is not our aim with this frame.

Our aim is durability combined with low weight and a STW value on 122.5 makes this a rigidand responsive racer.

The factsThe XC-Hardtail is optimal matched for 100 to 120 mm front suspension. STW

Who will benefitTrue racing hardtail believer who won’t carry around any unnecessary weight.

Customers say7 to 8 kegs complete bike is normal for many Pronghorn XC-Hardtail costumers.
