KTM is well known for making fast two-wheeled machines, but maybe less well known for the kind without an engine. The Austrian brand’s been making pedal bikes for many years.![]()

Our riders will be rocking the Revelator Alto climbing- and Revelator Lisse aero bikes. The Lisse frame, as to be seen in the pictures, has a striking look that manages to be different enough to other aero frame designs, with very pronounced dropped seat stays which flow out into long, narrow stays. The stem is a bespoke KTM part and is also different from any other bike design.![]()

All bikes are equipped with Shimano’s Ultegra di2 groupset and finished off with CICLOVATION 馳興 bar tape.![]()

In the last 2km of the race, I tried to bridge the gap to the first group of five riders, but I finished in 6th position at only 10” from a podium spot.

🗣 Daan Hoeks "Bas and Ian did a great job in the first 110km of the race to keep us out of trouble. The transition from one circuit to another was very hectic and we lost Mathijs due to an unfortunate crash. As soon as we hit the Murro Ca’ del Poggio for the first time, the peloton scattered, yet we were in the first group with three riders. I am satisfied with the result of the team today, it boosts our confidence for the next set of races.“![]()

Vitamine C is een wateroplosbare vitamine die essentieel is voor sporters. Het is misschien wel de meest bekende vitamine als het gaat om de ondersteuning van je weerstand. Daarnaast zorgt het er voor dat ons lichaam non-heemijzer (één van de twee ijzervormen in je voedsel) beter opneemt. ![]()

Wist je dat er in de zaadjes van rozenbottel maar liefst 30 keer zoveel vitamine C zit als in een sinaasappel? Daarom hebben wij deze natuurlijke vitaminebommetjes toegevoegd aan ons Vitamine C supplement. ![]()

Ruud Bokhout, General Manager Europe “We are happy to extend the cooperation and continue to support the team with our products. The feedback from the riders and mechanics helps us to make our products even better.”![]()

SunRace originated in Taiwan in 1972, initially providing entry-level products particularly to North and South America. The boom in sales of mountain bikes resulted in rapid expansion. Twenty-five years later, it had become clear that further growth would only result from higher level components and so commenced the process of taking the product range up-market.![]()
![]()
That procedure accelerated after internal hub gear supplier Sturmey-Archer was purchased in 2000. Sturmey-Archer was first established in England in 1902 when they invented the 3-speed internal gear hub. The purchase of Sturmey-Archer meant that SunRace now had a strong foothold in Europe with their sales and distribution company in the Netherlands. Supplying the European market demanded even higher level specifications resulting in large investments in engineering and Research and Development.![]()
![]()
SunRace products are now specified by the world’s leading bicycle manufacturers and are also used extensively in the aftermarket. Alongside the catalogue range, SunRace have also always used their R&D expertise in co-operation with OEM, to create customised product. That broad range has helped Sunrace to become a major player in the bike industry world-wide.

🗣 René Kos, coach: "What makes Bram interesting is the fact that in his junior years he only did what he liked best: riding his bike, without a power meter, without a trainer. That's why we invited him for an performance test with our partner Cyclinglab, where he showed his potential through a good test. With the right coaching and a good competition program, we can help Bram to take the next step in his career."
