The Rheintal custom-made specialist is set for a colorful 2016 model year: the numerous color options are not only available for frames and decals, but also for thru axles, grips, stems, seat clamps and saddles. A new electronic era is also dawning at Koba.

The custom-made expert Koba places the new "27 Carbon Sentiero" right in the middle between cross-country rocket and enduro machine. The all-mountain bullet offers 130 millimetres of travel at the front and rear, uses trendy 650b tyres and rolls onto the trails with an elegantly shaped carbon frame.

The Swiss Championships in Balgach were held on a tough, selective course in front of over 10,000 spectators. The titles were won by the favorite Nino Schurter in the men's category and surprisingly by Sarah Koba from Buchs in the women's category. Jolanda Neff and Matthias Stirnemann won the U23 category, while Andrea Waldis and Andri Frischknecht won the junior category.

The Swiss custom bike specialist Koba is at the forefront of offering bikes with the popular plus tire size. As early as July, Koba will be offering two fullies and a hardtail that roll off-road on 27.5 Plus tires.
