About this harness

The Apex Curv pairs a Curv hybrid shell with softer edges: support where the pull lands, flex where the body moves. It is aimed at riders who want hardshell control without giving up soft-harness comfort — the comfortable end of ION's performance programme, built for riders who demand support in all conditions.
