Product news: With the Maloja Pushbiker Classic, the Bavarian team has realized a nice project together with its sponsors. A classic road bike at its core, with an aluminum frame and conventional in many ways, but at the same time fully race-ready.
Thanks to numerous successes on the velodrome floor around the world, the Maloja Pushbikers have certainly made a name for themselves outside of the railway scene in recent years. Of course, modern technology also helped here - without the right material you can no longer keep up with the world's best. Nevertheless: The Bavarian team still has a heart for classic track cycling, for classic technology and, of course, for traditional bikes.
The Maloja Pushbiker Classic bike, which the team realized together with the team sponsors, arose from this awareness of classic cycling. The frame material is also classic – everyone can somehow use carbon fiber these days, instead they chose an aluminum frame for the Pushbiker Classic. The choice fell on the Roubaix Elite from Fuji, which with its weight of less than 1.100g almost pushes into the carbon sphere.
Product news: Fuji Roubaix Elite – New, very light aluminum racer under €2.000
Market: High-quality and well-equipped aluminum racers are now a rare commodity. So it is all the more refreshing that Fuji is also offering aluminum fans in 2017 with the new Roubaix Elite, a well-designed, lightweight racing bike with an aluminum frame. The key data are really interesting with a weight of 7,2kg at a price of less than €2.000. Friends […]
The wheels are high-tech: super-light tubular rims on wickerwork hubs and – how could it be otherwise – polished, silver spokes. The wheels weigh just 1.060g. Of course, we always kept an eye on the weight: braking and shifting is done with SRAM's Red 22 group, most of the attachments come from Syntace. In the end, the scales stopped at a sensational 58kg in size 6,46 – despite the 'old-fashioned' frame material.
