Eurobike off-road gallery

By Ian Collins

There's always a bamboozling array of stuff to see at the Eurobike trade show in Friedrichshafen.

Our man Ian Collins, from sister mag Mountain Biking UK, has been patrolling the halls armed only with his wits and his camera. That's a scary thought.

Here's a selection of what he saw, from raw carbon and aluminium frames to an electric supermoto bike. Just click on an image to the right to open a full sized gallery.

  • Is this it?

    This is the extent of the MTB coverage from Eurobike?

    Wow.

    There must be more coming once he returns from the show, right?

  • damn I hope so,

    they have still got loads to explain. besides these are the buggers that took all the freebies before the rest of us got there on the sunday - i feel I deserve a good report after they drank all the red bull...
