The Koga Miyata Explosion is a testament to the innovation of bike manufacturing in the late 90s. Manufactured in the Netherlands in 1997, this model embodies the shift towards the use of aluminium in bike frames, with its 7005 Aluminium Twin Tube System. This construction method offered an excellent balance of strength and weight, making the bike agile yet durable. The Unicrown chrome-molybdenum fork further exemplifies the forward-thinking engineering of the time, paving the way for the modern mountain bike designs we see today
