No stone will be left unturned at Intense Cycles, at least as far as the European markets are concerned: "In light of the ongoing economic challenges in the global bicycle industry, we have had to make some difficult decisions to ensure the long-term strength and future of Intense Cycles. Effective immediately, Intense Cycles will cease all online sales and distribution activities in Europe," the US manufacturer announced on its website. 

This means that Intense will no longer be selling bikes in Europe until further notice. According to the gravity bike specialist, this decision was not taken lightly, but is part of a broader strategy to focus resources and stabilize the core business in North America.

On this website, Intense Cycles announces that warranty services and spare parts are still available and will be shipped directly from the US warehouse. The global support team is available for all questions and service requests via the website or by email.

According to Intense, this change represents a temporary change in the way it operates in Europe, but it is not a farewell. The aim is to return to the global markets, including Europe, stronger and better positioned.
