    Super Deluxe allowed us to ditch old design constraints, and simply focus on building the best possible rear shock. And with that old thinking no longer holding us back, we began to wonder why coil-shock performance had to be limited to purely downhill and enduro applications and why there should be any pedaling compromise associated with a coil shock.

    Dust off your old steel road bike and get ready for a weekend of riding, eating and drinking - just like they did in the old days! Eroica started as a celebration of vintage racing culture and everything that goes along with it, and we’re proud to carry on this tradition for a second year here on African soil. On 18 March 2017 we take over the old KWV distillery in Montagu for our Eroica Festival, and there are three beautiful gravel routes to choose from on the day, each with spectacular views and unique food stops. It’s important to note that Eroica is not a race, but rather a homage to bicycle races of old. So we ride old steel road bikes, and dress and act the part - wool, steel, Chianti!
