Teams

Under the team name ULTRA SPORTS ROSE RACING TEAM, Steffen Thum and Simon Gegenheimer are now fighting for World Cup points at mountain bike races in the cross-country segment. We provide the two top athletes with individual competition bikes that are perfectly adapted to their needs.

Rose has been supporting young, talented athletes for many years. With our new Rose bikes, we have now also started conquering the Gravity and Dirt segment since the end of 2008.

The team has an international line-up and is directed by Joost Wichman from the Netherlands. He is European Fourcross Champ and ranked third in the 2011 World Cup. The team will start among others at Downhill World Cups, the new 4X PRO Tour, the iXS Downhill Cup and of course at the Megavalanche! What's more, the team will be present at every big bike festival.

Bobby Root is one of the most fascinating personalities in the freeride scene. He became famous as Kona and Cannondale team cyclist. In spectacular world record attempts he set the currently still valid records for speed wheelies.

Anja Dittmer is a German duathlete, triathlete and Olympic participant of the years 2000, 2004 and 2008. Her career started in 1992 with a second place at the German triathlon championship (Juniors A). Anja is still very successful today and we accompany her on her victorious way.

As a globally operating company, we support of course professional cyclists from different countries. They are based all over Europe – from Finland down to Spain – and compete in races with our bikes.
