7 REASONS TO GET ON A BIKE☝️

1. CYCLING ENHANCES MENTAL WELL-BEING
According to a YMCA study, people who lead physically active lives have a 32% higher level of happiness than inactive people.
Cycling combines physical activity with being outside and discovering new sights 🤗😊

2. CYCLING INCREASES BRAIN POWER
According to a 2013 study, cyclists' blood flow in the brain is increased by 28% during exercise, and up to 70% in specific areas. Improved blood flow is beneficial because the red stuff in your body transports all sorts of nutrients that keep us healthy 🧐🧠

3. CYCLING CAN HELP YOU IMPROVE YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM.
This is especially important during the global Covid-19 pandemic 🤧

4. CYCLING AIDS WEIGHT LOSS AND MUSCLE BUILDING
Cycling burns calories at a rate ranging from 400 to 1000 per hour, depending on the intensity and rider weight. It also helps to build muscle, especially in the glutes, hamstrings, quads, and calves. Muscle is leaner than fat, and people who have a higher proportion of muscle burn more calories even when they are sedentary💪🦵

5. AFTER CYCLING, YOU CAN ENJOY SECOND BREAKFASTS
If you decide to ride your bike to work, you'll have a great excuse to include a couple of guilt-free snacks in your day😋

6. CYCLING ENHANCES YOUR S*X LIFE
Cycling strengthens some very important muscle groups. Dr. Matthew Forsyth, a urologist and avid cyclist from Portland said that all of the muscles worked on the bike are used during in*******se. The longer and more athletic the in*******se, the better developed these muscles😉

7. CYCLISTS GET BETTER SLEEP
It's probably not rocket science that riding your bike will help you sleep better. Looking for reasons for the link, researchers hypothesized that it could be a reduction in anxiety caused by exercise, which improves sleep quality. Exercise also helps to prevent weight gain as we age, which is another cause of sleep problems😴🌚

Ottavio Bottecchia (August 1, 1894 - June 15, 1927) was an Italian road cyclist, two-time winner of the Tour de France (1924 and 1925). Coming from a poor family, he came to cycling very late, and did not turn professional until the age of 28. He soon became the first Italian to win the French Supermoto, and at the age of 32 he died in training under unclear circumstances. Ottavio Bottecchia fought in World War I and received the Bronze Medal for Military Valor.
Our carbon fibre lightweight handlebars are named after this talented cyclist.

"THE FRANTZ” CARBON-FIBER SADDLE

The secret of building a super-light road bike Is to maximize the carbon-fiber component, which naturally means that a fully carbon fiber saddle should match the rest of the beast.

The full carbon aerodynamically designed Frantz Riquen Saddle weighs a mere 115g, which helps you reach the frontier of minimal weight carbon fiber biking.

The Frantz Riquen Saddle is a super lightweight (115g) Is designed for the weight conscious rider who wants to fly; with carbon saddle, carbon crankset, and carbon bottle cage.

On the other side of the coin we note that this equipment is more suited to shorter distances and revert to a conventional saddle if there is discomfort.

⚙️Toray T800+T1000 carbon fiber, which is the sturdiest mass-produced carbon in the market.

⚙️100% Carbon Fiber to help achieve minimum bike weight and optimize aerodynamics.

⚙️A super lightweight (115g) and aerodynamic carbon-fiber saddle.

⚙️Standard seat rail and a breeze to apply to any road bike.

⚙️3K matte or gloss versions available.

👌 If you consider buying a bicycle frame, you have to pick the design material with the skills you require.
We offer light and fast carbon fiber frames for road bicycles. Bicycle developers and cyclists often consider carbon fiber as the dream material. When well-produced, it’s exceptionally light and smooth. This type of bicycle frame has a lot of advantages for those who roll on paved surfaces:
– given stiffness;
– lower density, which is absorbing (rather than transmitting) road vibration during the ride.
Carbon frames are smoother and thinner than any other. The thin filaments sit tightly together in a tow, increasing the overall stiffness. The material also creates freedom for designers and engineers because it can be formed in various complex and stylish shapes that are not available with any other material. Carbon maximizes the efficiency of the aerodynamic resistance and allows varying amounts of stiffness depending on the goals and needs.

❗For today we offer two types of frames:

✅ THE TROUSSELIER BICYCLE FRAME Fast and lightweight the Trousselier frameset ticks all the boxes. Its precise combination of stiffness, tubing and geometry takes you on a technology driven journey from curbside to hillside in exceptional style and comfort.

✅ THE FABER ROAD BIKE FRAME
A new breed of super lightweight road bike and your ticket to a good mood rain or shine. We built the Faber for cyclists who love those dreamy country roads as much as racing.

❗ The importance of your bike saddle cannot be overestimated.

🚲 A saddle must be designed for you and your riding style. For a road bicycle when you want to save weight, you need a long, lean saddle without much padding. Carbon fiber saddles have a very low weight and can be designed to absorb vibrations – it makes them ideal for road bikes. The shape of your body also influences how well the seat works for you. In the long run, firmer saddles may be more comfortable. When you cycle on a regular basis, your body adapts to the hard seat and your actions become more efficient since you are not hampered by thick layers of foam.
Even if you have the correct saddle, a lot of bumps or a long day in the saddle might cause perineum compression. As a result, selecting the most comfortable bike seat may necessitate modifying your riding technique.

📍 Here are some tips to get you started:

1. Every 10 minutes or so take a brief stand on your pedals.
2. Standing slightly over bumps with your legs acting as shock absorbers.
3. Put on cushioned/padded biking shorts. They can aid in reducing friction, wicking perspiration, and cushioning shocks.
