This is what it looked like when the Chief Sales & Marketing Officer would go on a customer visit and deliver samples for customers based near the DT Swiss head office in Biel. The commuter front rack from @pelagobicycles allows small deliveries by bike. In this picture, Matthias’ bike is loaded with four D 232 ONE dropper seat posts - ready to go. #factorysquadrides

Matthias’ commuter bike is equipped with the DT Swiss 370 Track hub. With its classic and simple design it fits perfectly into the pure Hopmans Scorpion frame. Of course the bike is equipped with rim brakes, so everything is safe for road traffic.⁣ ⁣ #factorysquadrides

Let us introduce you to the commuter bicycle from Matthias, Chief Sales & Marketing Officer at DT Swiss.⁣ ⁣ The bike is based on a Hopmans Scorpione steel frame. The wheels are a unique combination: RC55C with track hubs. Yes, you are seeing correctly, track wheels with rim brake rims. Unusual, but for city traffic, certainly the safe choice.⁣ ⁣ #factorysquadrides #engineeringperformance @hopmansfietsgigant

On technically demanding and hilly courses, @lucycharles93 first choice is the ARC 1100 DICUT 62 wheelset, being as aero as possible while allowing full control in any riding situation.⁣ ⁣ #rebornfaster #meticulousdevelopment #engineeringperformance #ambitiouscyclist

Maximum aero efficiency for Lucy Charles-Barclay's new @cube.bikes Aerium C:68 SLT including the ARC 1100 DICUT wheels for rim brake mounted with @schwalbetires Pro One TT TLE. We're looking forward to seeing this combination in action.⁣ ⁣ #meticulousdevelopment #engineeringperformance #rebornfaster #flatoutfast ⁣ ⁣ 📷 @cube.bikes

DT Swiss joins @lucycharles93 as official performance partner. We will support the successful British long distance triathlete with the full range of ARC aero wheels and are proud to contribute an important piece of aerodynamics towards Lucy’s fastest bike set-up in combination with @cube.bikes and @schwalbetires.⁣ ⁣ #rebornfaster #engineeringperformance #ambitiouscyclist #competitiveedge⁣ ⁣ 📷 @cube.bikes

My wife and I are German, I live in Belgium, my wife works in the Netherlands. The openness and freedom of this nationwide life situation was taken away from us for about three months by the Corona crisis. The borders were tight, Germany and therefore friends and family were unreachable. What remained and kept us happy was simply the bicycle, because outdoor sports were allowed in Belgium at any time. The bicycle was and is for us a mood booster, personal trainer and life coach.” 𝗪𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘀 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗶𝗰𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗲? 𝗟𝗲𝘁 𝘂𝘀 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀! #readytopaint @opencycle
