The collaboration came about because the Bernese mountain bikers behind Suplest and Rider's Elements have known each other for years. According to Rider's Elements Managing Director Thomas Wüthrich, distribution will take place in parallel with the two other Swiss intermediaries, Agentur Mauro Bettina and Zakk GmbH. Rider's Elements intends to offer the entire collection and list it in its upcoming catalog.

What Suplest has in common with the new distributor is that the company has only been active for a short time. The bike shoemaker from the Bern region has been in business for around a year. Within a short space of time, the shoes for racing bikes, cross country and touring have established a good reputation in the scene. Thanks to convincing function and design, the newcomer to the highly competitive shoe market was able to expand abroad in its first year. Suplest shoes are already being sold in Germany, Holland and Belgium.
