Tour de Georgia "Results"

This is perhaps one of the hardest stage races in the USA. If you have not been to the top of Brasstown Bald, GA then you have no idea how steep it is! In spots it reaches over 22-23% grade incline. You then think about racing up it after 100 miles, mostly that being uphill.

We are very pleased to work with the top racers like Jeremiah Bishop, Georgia Gould, Shonny Vanlandingham, Nat Ross, Tina Pic, and Kristin Armstrong, to name a few. These pros race at the biggest races! We are also very pleased to see our dealers working with top guns across the country. We then watch their efforts, and the results roll in. Bike setup is huge!

From coast to coast, from "Sea Otter to Macon, GA" racers are getting the results both in mtb and road, from crits to stage races.

All this week, performance has been high and super results have come from many pros who use our systems! Your position (zone of movement) on a bike is huge. Today's race to Brasstown Bald, Ga requires optimal power output, perfect handling for sharp curves, stead fast lines for fast downhills, then to end it on a 22% grade, your best climbing options, all from the start of the race to the end.

Today was one of those events that throws everything the racer can handle, and over a course of 100 miles! A real test of what works best! You must have an aerodynamic package, that makes big power, plus be as efficient as possible, in order to get to the top of Brasstown Bald, Ga.

It works for both men and women, just like Georgia Gould, who did 38 miles solo at Sea Otter and put over 4 min on 2nd place!

We wanted to just sit back and watch the super efforts come forth this week at the "Tour de Georgia". If you have been watching the "Tour de Georgia" you might not have known that we had guys on the front of the races all week!

Today was the end of Brasstown Bald, GA. Below are just a few racers that held their own against the very best in the game. Thanks to our dealers, Todd Herriott of "Herriott Sports Performance", and Craig Upton of "Performance Labs", both using our CAD and our technical aspects to the game.


We can help you pedal. Despite the apparent simplicity of the movements involved, "pedaling must be learned".
