Remember seeing an e-MTB competing in the Downhill World Championship?
When we lined up a Wild prototype at the start gate with Martin Maes, it created a lot of noise. Sure, some people laughed at the idea of an e-bike on a pure DH track. But we chose to push engineering past the limit. Martin didn’t just race; he qualified for the finals and finished in the top 20, less than three seconds from the winner. For our OOLab team, this wasn't a stunt. It was a rigorous testing ground to experiment with maximum adjustability and build knowledge.
That disruptive Wild DH prototype became the foundation for our next big leap: Rallon DH, our first pure downhill bike, which went on to win multiple World Cups in its very first year.
