DESCRIPTION
The Optic C3 is an aggressive short-travel sled that rips on descents and can get back to the top without a gondola.
The Optic C3 sharpens your view on high speed trails.
The precision suspension kinematics and custom DH spec shock creates 125mm of rear travel, matched with a gravity-eating 140mm fork for the control you need to keep your mind on the trail ahead.
