COMMENCAL / 100% Adds Two Riders


Hugo Frixtalon and Antoine Rogge join Thomas Estaque and Bruce Klein for the 2019 season and beyond.

Sooo keeeen to start 2019 with the best sponsors and this stylish roster!
 
2018 was a huge bet for the team and it paid off! World Cup podiums in Elite Men and loads of great results on the international + national scene by all the riders. The foundations are strong and the riders are going into the new season amped!
 

 

Thomas Estaque has been on board since 2014 with plenty of good runs, followed by a few injuries, but it paid off last year with his first podium in Val di Sole. His wild style and true passion reflect the aspect of the sport we love the most.
 

 

 

Bruce Klein had a tough season in 2018 with two injuries in a row despite very good spots in pre­-season US races. His strong and positive mental attitude, plus his determination, in addition to huge effort during training, are the keys to finding good pace and having fun.
 

 

 

Hugo Frixtalon was riding the series as a privateer on a COMMENCAL for his first Elite season. His potential and skills are very interesting if you take a look at Vallnord and Val di Sole last year. He's the rough diamond with an amazing riding style!
 

 

 

Antoine Rogge is entering the Junior category this season, training with an impressive maturity and a head full of dreams. He will get the support he needs to start his young career.
 

 

 

There are no major change of sponsors, mostly improvements in the partnerships. Why look elsewhere when you already have the best?

Tech:
The COMMENCAL SUPREME 29 platform combined with e*thirteen wheels, Maxxis tires and Fox suspension is the dream machine the riders are looking for.

TRP now proposes a brand new drive train in addition to their strong G­Spec brakes.

RIDE ALPHA still offers the perfect fit for cockpits with the handlebar geometries riders are looking for.

Riders use CushCore tire inserts to counteract the sharpest rocks and stay safe during racing.

HT (pedals) has been part of the team since 2013 and proudly becomes our longest partnership.

Slicy (custom mud guards) bring the bikes a different touch in design, depending on the week­end, and allows the riders to stay clean in wet conditions.

Athletes: (REMOVE THIS WORD)
100% is the freshest brand of gear on the circuit and they provide us with the full dream package, alongside with the most comfortable and best looking DH shoes by Afton.

Ryno Power (sport supplements) still fuels the athletes with healthy energy and recovery during training and races.

The team are lucky enough to welcome the legendary American grip manufacturer ODI, MIPS (protective systems in our Aircraft helmets) and Acros (headsets).

« 2019 will be newschool again! Giving support to Hugo and Antoine is really exciting. Whatever happens, this roster has huge potential and a good state of mind. Riders really form one TEAM with a proper identity and style. COMMENCAL, 100% and the rest of our sponsors are companies we want to work with and I thank them a lot for continuing our relationship over the coming years. »
Pierre­-Charles GEORGES, Manager

«Saying that DH is our engine, our passion, that's just evident. With our friends at 100%, we're very proud to be (for the 4th year) partners of the team which is probably is the youngest on the entire DH circuit (4 riders with a 19 year old average age!) Their challenge will certainly be to face up to the pressure on their shoulders and manage their progression. There is talent to work with... And they can be sure they get our confidence, support, encouragement and all our love!»
