far from justthe bikes thatdownhill built_
For the best part of a decade we’ve pursued excellence in
downhill racing. And nothing’s changed about that.
In fact, our flagship production model -- the much revered
Makulu -- is a clear testament to time well spent.
What has changed is the breadth of our scope. Applying
exactly the same dedication as we do in downhill, we’ve
worked tirelessly to create a frame for every discipline.
And that includes cross-country. Why has it taken so long?
Quite simply, we weren’t satisfied. But now we are.
