Italian term

una ciclistica

Non-PRO Italian to English Tech/Engineering
Advertising blurb for a motorcycle:
"Un motore di 350cc...che non disdegna di essere portato al limite da una guida sportiva; una ciclistica e un assetto particolarmente studiati per garantire comodità nei percorsi..."

I don't understand what they're trying to say after the semi-colon i.e. "una ciclistica e un assetto" - can someone please enlighten me? I'm having a bad day.

telaio

I believe here "ciclistica" means "telaio", i.e. the part that a motorbike shares with a bycicle.

I am no expert

on this, but I have the feeling that there should be a comma instead of a semicolon (better still an "e" but than it would create a conflict with the following conjunction), that is
una guida sportiva e una ciclistica, e un assetto....
that is you can drive it as if you were racing or just touring

buon lavoro

telaio, i.e. frame

come dice golub. Nel campo delle moto, la ciclistica è tutto ciò che riguarda il telaio. Vi allego un pezzo di articolo da motorsport.it

Per quanto riguarda la ciclistica, poche novità. Il telaio è quello della Fogarty Replica" con traliccio modificato e nuovi tiranti maggiorati da 12 mm e, ovviamente,telaietto ausiliario reggisella in alluminio.... ecc...

Spero che aiuti.

la ciclistica comprende anche le ruote

devo precisare che nella ciclistica sono comprese anche le ruote. Quindi forse andrebbe tradotto con frame and wheels.
In genere si fa distinzione fra motore, ciclistica, impianto frenante e design...

Buon lavoro.
