The VOID 130 - Vive La Différence
The Kingdom VOID is not just a new bike. For us, it’s a new way to make bikes. Here we look at how the VOID 130 can be built into two quite different bikes; a classic pedal up trail tamer or a point and shoot park bike.

The VOID trail 130 as the name suggested it has 130mm of travel and is perfect for trail riding, but with a little tweaking the VOID 130 can also be more aggressive, lighter and perfect for bike parks or for people who enjoy shorter travel but still want to send it and ride aggressively.

Here we've laid out two different builds so you can see how flexible the VOID trail can be either in classic (stereotypical) trail format with 11 speed and a dropper or in an more aggressive 7 speed bike park build.

VOID 130 - Classic trail build
Classic trail build, 11 or 12sp drive chain, 140mm travel forks and Kitsuma Air shock delivering 130mm of rear travel, and weighing 13.89kgs in an fairly light build.
The VOID Trail - 'pedal me up build'

The VOID Trail is simplicity defined. It has a straight headtube, slimline Breezer dropouts and IS tab brake mounts. We’ve added full internal cable routing through the main triangle into the swing arm and finished things off with a future proof T47 bottom bracket. Bringing the weight of this medium frame in at just over 3.05kg without shock and in this build 13.89kgs with shock.

The VOID Trail - 'point and shoot build'

The VOID Trail is simplicity defined a straight headtube, slimline Breezer dropouts and IS tab brake mounts keep things clean and simple. We’ve added full internal cable routing through the main triangle into the swing arm and finished things off with a future proof T47 bottom bracket. Bringing the weight of this medium frame in at just over 3.05kg without shock and in this build at 13.10kgs with air Kitsuma shock.

*The fork travel adjustment to 140mm slackens the head tube angle to 64 degrees and raises the BB drop by 3mm to -16mm.

The mesh codpiece which may or may not reach production.

AM printed shock mounts, internally threaded and with an alloy bridge, which in production may be converted to an optional bolt on multi-tool bridge.

Classic Kingdom top tube support.

Additive manufacture - a printed pivot yoke, a testament to what can be made using AM technology and how this can help take the fabrication of metal mountain bikes to another level.
