The partners PME and BOLE show at Fakuma 2024 how WIT-Technology conquers the bicycle sector
Together with its partner KraussMaffei, PME is showing a revolutionary children's bike at Fakuma.
PME's water injection technology (WIT) is conquering an industry in which aluminium has previously set the tone, namely the bicycle sector. On the new li:on bike of former professional cyclists Marcel Kittel and Tony Martin, the frame and fork are made using PME's WIT process:
- Frame and fork made from high-performance polymer and 40 per cent recycled carbon fibres.
- 67% less emissions compared to aluminium
- Zero waste thanks to mass back-pressure method in the WIT process
- Made in Germany
