Why are bikes as expensive as a motorbike or a car?
A design in which gray predominates but in which golden details are also included to represent that 50th anniversary and the desire to continue improving. On the other hand, we also find pink as a nod to the historic Team Stumjumper and that irreverent and rebellious spirit of late 70s mountain biking in which the brand forged its fame and which must continue to be the driving force that propels them over the next half century.
The S-Works Forward 50 LTD collection includes the S-Works Tarmac SL8 of which 250 units will be manufactured with this design. The same number will be available for the S-Works Epic World Cup in addition to a variable number of their S-Works Prevail 3 and S-Works Evade 3 helmet models with a design matching that of the bikes.
