A new bike for Mrs. Marathon

Esther Süss was one of the best female mountain bikers in the world. World champion in the marathon in 2010, third at the Cross-Country World Championships in 2013 and fifth in the Olympic Cross-Country race in London are just the biggest cornerstones of her successful career. In recent years, however, Süss has been unable to build on her successes, but that hasn't stopped her from continuing to ride - she is a passionate racer. Even the fact that she no longer has a racing team behind her is no reason for the soon-to-be 43-year-old to retire.

Knowing that she can still ride at the front in the marathon, Esther Süss has now shifted her focus entirely to the long distance and stage races and said goodbye to cross-country only. But even in the marathon it is difficult without support. Especially in stage races, which are usually ridden in teams of two and therefore require identical equipment. In Süss' case, this means a new competition bike. She is now hoping to finance this with a fundraising campaign on the Swiss sports crowdfunding platform "I believe in you".
