PRESS RELEASE: INTEND BICYCLE COMPONENTS

Freiburg component manufacturer Intend Bicycle Components heralds a new era for the new year. “New Age” describes a comprehensive update of the suspension fork lineup, which contains some technical subtleties and also brings a new model with it.

The Intend suspension forks have been designed, assembled and developed by Cornelius Kapfinger, for around five years and a lot has happened in these five years. Tube diameters have increased, details have been refined and just under two years ago, the reconstruction from non-boost to boost was necessary to reach more customers. During this time, the number of forks sold continued to grow.

This has given Intend reason enough to take the next step and introduce their 2020 model range with the name “New Age”. With the New Age model series, a special upsidedown model called Flash is being created in a special “Freudenhammer Edition”, which will be introduced in the next few weeks. In terms of weight, this will line up well above the Edge enduro fork and was specially designed for the requirements of enduro sport, which is becoming ever tougher, and the requirements of eMTB that have to be assessed in terms of loads placed on the fork.
