Gold is the even more rigid, high-quality composite version of SILVER. While the front structure is identical, GOLD booms have a carbon rear piece. This compact, single-piece construction achieves a significantly higher bending stiffness. This property is further enhanced by the DOUBLE.PIN.LOCK system. The GOLD series also comes with oval SQUASH.GRIP tubes with soft, high-grip coating measuring only 28 mm in diameter, which help avoid cramped forearms and deliver additional comfort. All in all, a very rigid boom for demanding riders.
