EKOÏ IN APRIL
The big innovation: carbon wheels by EKOÏ
At EKOÏ, we love to surprise you. This time, it's with a pair of Ultimate 50mm carbon wheels, designed for performance: 1350 g per pair – a record weight at this price level, carbon spokes for enhanced responsiveness, and a raw racing carbon finish for a decidedly competitive look.
All this with an unbeatable quality/price ratio, true to our commitment: to offer you the best, without compromise.
A mountain biking legend joins EKOÏ
Already committed alongside the DH Coloma and Origine Factory Racing teams, we are taking a new step with the arrival of Cédric Gracia, an icon of freeride and downhill.
As an ambassador and also a key player in the development of our next MTB range, he brings his vision, his demand... and his legendary good humor.
« Cédric is not just a mountain biking legend — he embodies the freeride spirit of this discipline. » Jean-Christophe Rattel, CEO of EKOÏ
« What I love about EKOÏ is their desire to innovate while never losing touch with the riders... I'm super motivated to share my good humor and experience on the trails and with the R&D team! » Cédric Gracia
