DVO and 100% board Switzerland
Upside down
The fork is upside down: With the "Emerald", DVO presents an upside-down fork for downhill and freeride use. Former employees of Marzocchi USA have joined forces under the DVO label - the abbreviation stands for Developed Suspension. DVO founder Bryson Martin was the former director of the Marzocchi division in the USA and the other employees involved in sales, marketing and engineering also come from the US department of the Italian fork manufacturer.
A long-travel spring damper for the rear triangle is already in the pipeline and an enduro fork is in the development phase at DVO.
According to Intercycle, the distribution agreement was concluded at this year's Interbike trade fair in Las Vegas. DVO's sales manager John Pelino already let it be known at the Taichung Bike Week 2012 that Intercycle could be a preferred candidate for distribution, due to the Marzocchi representation, which also belongs to the Sursee-based trading company.
Cooperation with iXS-Downhillcup
Intercycle will communicate the exact product range and availability on www.intercycle.com. According to the distributor, close cooperation between DVO and www.ixsdownhillcup.com is planned.
