Forestal Cygnus Diode — Non-Assisted Down-Country Speed

The Forestal Cygnus Diode brings World Cup-caliber speed to a pure, pedal-powered package. Built around a 29” wheel platform with 120 mm of travel, it blends razor-sharp efficiency with surprising composure when the course turns rough. This is Forestal’s short‑travel, full‑carbon XC/down‑country weapon—light, responsive, and made to attack modern race tracks and fast singletrack.

Anchored by the Alpha Box carbon chassis and Twin‑Levity kinematics tuned for down‑country performance, the Cygnus Diode pairs quick‑handling geometry with practical touches like internal frame storage and a clean, integrated cockpit. It’s the bike you choose when every climb matters and every descent is free speed.
