It was the end of 2012, when we first met with Dany. We were pretty sure that another exciting but at the same very tough project is ahead of us…. The aim was to build a frame which is very stiff but light enough, with great acceleration and which is highly responsive to the player on the polo court.
The Bike Polo is basically a minor sport so the players have to travel a lot in order to attend as many international tournaments and jams as possible. To make the travelling more comfortable and to avoid extra costs spent on another pieces of luggage, we included very precise couplings delivered by S&S Machinework, which allow to easily devide the frame into two parts.
Beautiful design is a combination of sandblasting and white pearl painting with a little bit of blue color. Whole frame is covered by matte clear powder coat to have high resistance against hits by a ball.
All the labels are truly painted, they are not stickers.
Rear horizontal dropouts have replacable stainless steel inserts, so paint is not damaged by hub screws.
