Description

Piloted by our very own cyclocross superstar, Gosse van der Meer, the Tension C is our full carbon fibre race bike. Gosse may be a one man team, but he has racked up quite a collection of silverware across the world with this beauty and it's easy to see why. A lightweight high modulus carbon frame and excellent Seido Geon disc wheels fitted with Challenge Grifo tan wall tyres form a superb rolling chassis. Add in a Ritchey cockpit and SRAM’s race-ready Sram Rival AXS electronic 1x groupset and a Sram Force carbon crank to keep the pedals spinning whenever possible, and when not, dismount and run, fast.
