The shop's feature list
- Hey du, ja, du … nimmst du eigentlich immer die Waage mit in den Fahrradladen und prüfst, ob du auch wirklich den leichtesten Reifen für dein Cross Country-Bike kaufst? Manche würden dich ja als ein wenig obsessiv bezeichnen. Wir nicht, denn wir sprechen mit dem S-Works Epic genau die gleiche Sprache wie du. Unzählige Stunden in der Entwicklung, endlose Testrunden, Terabytes an Telemetriedaten – all das stellt sicher, dass kein einziges, überflüssiges Gramm gegen deine Geschwindigkeit arbeitet.
