Thömus is launching the Oberrider with a completely new carbon frame. Thanks to high-quality carbon fibers and the "RIBTec" double chamber technology, Thömus has been able to reduce the weight of the new frame to 2.2 kilograms. Internally routed cables and lines, including for a Vario seatpost, give the Oberrider frame a clean, tidy look.

The "RIBTec" double chamber technology in cross-section.

Thanks to the "Anti-Squat" kinematics, the four-bar rear triangle of the Oberrider should respond sensitively without bobbing up and down when pedaling. But the highlight of the new Oberrider is the "Vario Travel Setup Link". This uses so-called flip chips to ensure that 150 millimetres or 170 millimetres of travel are available at the rear, depending on requirements and the fork length installed. This means that the top rider is also equipped for rough terrain.

In the top-of-the-range configuration, the Oberrider offers a generous portion of technology: with generous suspension travel, a Vario seatpost and coarse-tread tires, the limits of this bike are set wide. Equipped with Shimano's electronic XTR Di2 groupset, the owner can adjust it to suit their own preferences. Thömus also attaches great importance to easy acceleration and has fitted the top model with Sram's XX1 drivetrain with lightweight carbon wheels from Enve. The "CT EN XX1" top rider with the massive 36 mm Fox fork is said to weigh just 11.7 kilograms without pedals. This means that the bike has sufficient suspension reserves and is still light enough to tackle longer climbs.

The new Oberrider is available from CHF 3,890.00.

The Oberrider top models "CT AM TEAM DI2", "CT EN Team" and "CT EN XX1".
