First test rides

A computer program can tell you a lot - about stress loads, force distribution, flex and stiffness. But one thing it can’t tell you? How a bike feels. That takes a human being - flesh, blood, instinct. That’s why extensive test rides are a standard part of our development process. For months, the list of riders eager to feed THE SUPERFAST with kilometers had been growing. Gravel racer Max Fink was the first to get his hands on a prototype. Frame, fork and cockpit had already proven themselves tough on the test bench. Now it was Max’s turn to push the bike to its limits. 500 to 600 kilometers per week. Hard riding. All conditions. Everything worked. Everything fit. Max was hooked. Give it back? No way. THE SUPERFAST and Max were now one.
