Dal 15 al 22 marzo, in Sudafrica, torna una delle sfide più iconiche della mountain bike mondiale: la Absa Cape Epic.
Otto giorni e 616 km tra i paesaggi spettacolari del Western Cape: salite rocciose, discese tecniche e terreni durissimi che mettono alla prova gambe, testa e spirito di squadra. Non a caso è conosciuta come “The Untamed African MTB Race”.
Il Torpado Kenda FSA arriva all’appuntamento più atteso della stagione in grande forma, con chiari segnali di crescita.

Alla Bardolino Bike di domenica scorsa Fabian Rabensteiner ha conquistato la sua seconda vittoria stagionale, mentre Gioele De Cosmo ha chiuso terzo. Nella gara femminile doppio podio, con Katažina Sosna seconda e Giorgia Marchet terza.

La settimana precedente, alla Wildwoods MTB Race di Montegrotto Terme, il team aveva già lasciato il segno: podio maschile tutto Torpado con la vittoria di Gioele De Cosmo e prova femminile dominata da Giorgia Marchet, davanti a Katažina Sosna.
Alla Cape Epic il Torpado Kenda FSA schiererà tre coppie pronte a essere protagoniste:
• Fabian Rabensteiner / Casey South, due atleti che uniscono esperienza e capacità di gestire le gare a tappe



Otto giorni di gara, polvere, velocità e paesaggi mozzafiato, il Torpado Kenda FSA è pronto alla sfida.

No clean kit, no perfect line, no filter. just a puddle you didn’t dodge, a grin you can’t hide, a bike you’ll wash tomorrow
Kepler R doesn’t care what’s under the tyres: tarmac, gravel, dirt, whatever comes next. it just keeps rolling while the landscape changes along with you. set off in the low light. let the road decide ✦

▸ the best part of any journey is the road you didn’t plan
No file, no pin, no ETA. just a wrong turn that turns out right, a white road that wasn’t on the map, a town you’ll never find again

Some of the best moments happen where the trail gets messy: wet moss, loose roots, rocks that look like they`ve got opinions.
That`s exactly where the grip kicks in and the bike just says "yeah, we`ve got this.

Pedal a little, let the motor handle the rest, and suddenly the forest feels like your own private playground. ▣
No rush, no noise, just you, the bike and a trail that keeps getting better.

Every climb has a moment where you wonder why you`re doing this. ↗
Then you reach the top, the trees open up and the answer is pretty obvious.
