Speed isn’t given—it’s mined from the margins, refined in the lab, and then proven in the world’s biggest races.

Unmatched carbon expertise

Excellence through innovation

Unmatched carbon expertise

High-grade carbon fibres are only the start. It’s how they’re applied that unlocks next-level performance.   

CFR-grade layups employ the best materials we can lay our hands on, laid up with absolute precision by industry-leading experts to meet our demanding stiffness, weight and strength targets.

This is key to us creating bikes that set new performance benchmarks, time and again. Ready to race. Ready to win.

German engineering: Refine. Test. Repeat.

Constant progression

German engineering: Refine. Test. Repeat.

Every bike that launches bearing the CFR name provides a snapshot of our progress at a particular place in time. In the background, we’re constantly looking ahead.

The feedback loop between our pro athletes, their mechanics, and our engineers is never-ending. Together, we’re constantly working away, refining and testing to land on the next big breakthrough.

Shaped by racing

We put riders first

We put riders first

A bike is only as fast as the athlete that pilots it. The approach of our CFR engineers is always refined around the rider.

Bikes built for purpose

Nothing hits harder than The Hell of the North, the perfect test bed to prove the hermetically sealed headsets equipped on all CFR road bikes.

Pro requests solve problems

Pro requests solve problems

Fast to ride and fast to work on. Pro mechanic feedback is key, which is why our mountain bikes feature replacement inserts on their pivot points.

No detail too small

No detail too small

At just 3.6 g, the featherlight chain guide on the Lux World Cup may be small on the scales, but when it comes to not dropping a chain, it’s huge.
