Swiss Mathias Flückiger was the strongest in the Short Track of the Les Gets World Cup and also took Sunday's victory in the World Cup. Under his feet the Thömus Lightrider full suspension with which he has been winning all this season and with which he leads the general classification, here we see it in detail.

Mathias Flückiger's Thömus Lightrider for Les Gets

The Swiss brand Thömus is little known outside the Alpine country, but Fluckiger is giving it a lot of visibility.

With this sticker, the UCI commissaires ensure that the bike used in the Short Track is the same as the one used on Sunday.

Swiss brands predominate in Flückiger's team: Thömus Ligthrider for the frame, DT Swiss for wheels and suspension, and Sponser for nutrition.

Shimano XTR for drivetrain and brakes

The famous anti-vibration stickers also appear on this Ligthrider.

Push buttons with sandpaper stickers ensure that they do not slip even in wet or muddy conditions, a trick adopted from disciplines such as Enduro.

Minimalist chain guides are now an indispensable part of XCO MTBs.
