We were granted an exclusive invitation to the launch of BH's new Lynx 4 trail bike in the French Alps last week, and we were very impressed by both the look and the ride of the bike.

American suspension guru Dave Weagle played a major part in its development. We managed to grab a few minutes with him on the slopes of Peisey-Vallandry – where he was on hand to tweak shock settings and gather rider feedback – to get the lowdown on the Lynx and its Split Pivot design.

Check out the video below – and open our image gallery for lots more pictures, including some shots of the clay – yes, clay – model used to develop the bike.
