Racing with Truebike

With our new bike – challenge accepted.

Finally we could try the new MTB bike in real race, MTB marathon. The wheather was all week sunny and very agreeable and on Saturday when you least needed it, it started slightly raining and rained all day. But these are the best conditions for testing, hm?

Mediterranean coast on big wheels

Two of our big wheeled beasts were exploring three European ports – Barcelona, Marseille and Genova. Each of them is specific and beautiful but Barcelona definitely has the most developed bike infrastructure.

Marseille

A bit like San Francisco – we recommend to know precisely the direction if you don’t want to climb the hills up and down (like us).

Sea Otter Europe in Girona

This expo concept originally comes from California. We took part in 3rd European edition in Girona, Catalunya. We spent there three days and enjoyed its ambiance very much…

Kolektif Berlin 2019

We were happy to return to the multicultural Berlin, city of bikes and clubs. The event Berliner Fahrradschau was cancelled so we tried a new concept called Kolektif Berlin, much smaller but still very visited. As usual most of the people were surprised by the size of our wheels, but once they tried it, they were surprised by Truebike’s maneuverability and stability. The small testing area didn’t allow to see how easy is to maintain the speed on the flat road. Nevertheless they enjoyed it!

And here is some proof:
