Design:
Monty has produced a totally new design for
the 221 Kamel after numerous tests and drawings.
The first thing that one can
see is the curve of the main tube. This is the reason of its name: Kamel. Two
main reasons for this special design: It underlines a new line on the design and
very different from the other brands and gives more strength to the head tube
helping to adsorb the great chocks in order to reduce the risk of breaking.
The head tube has suffered important changes too and now
has an impressive hollow at the front, where the top fork tube can be seen. This
implicates an important reduce on the weight so important in the
competition.
About the sizes: The frame is now longer and the BB is
in a more up-position. The stem is longer and with a more
inclination-angle.
The fork has been upgraded, provided with a top tube in
aluminium 7075. As a whole, the bike has an aggressive, charm and attractive
design.
Components:
The components are similar to the 2007
model. The brakes are by Hope specially for Monty with rotors of 160mm. The
freewheel is Monty, Ch.Moly, 6 pawls. The front rim is lighter than the model
2007 and the rear rim is wider as well. The handlebar is made in butted
aluminium.
The look finish of the 221 Kamel 2008 is bi-colour: White in the
superior part and polished in the inferior part, where the frame suffers more
the shocks. This finish has been made in order to increase the original paint
life.
Definitively, the new 221 Kamel 2008 is a bicycle that
surprises and convinces to anyone by its design and by its performance as well.
And sealing its privileges with a final weight of 8.700 Kg.
