| I am super stoked to join the Radon Factory Team. From the first test ride, the Radon Swoop 200 felt great. This bike, combined with the professional support of the team, made this an easy choice. This set up will take me to the next level in my career and will help me achieve my goals in World Cup DH. There should be no compromises and I am confident this is where Radon can and will take me. - Johannes Fischbachh |

i'd love to know what are the production costs of a top DH Bike and who earns how much: Pinkbike, now that's wort an article, eh.
Good luck for next season!!!
Really stoked about him riding for Radon. Quite sad what were the reasons for the change.....
Zum ersten Rennen war das Rad boch nicht wirklich fertig und sie waren im Endeffekt mit dem Downhill Prototyp einen Schritt hinten und mussten am Ende sogar Bike von einer anderen Firma kaufen, damit er seine Saison "normal" beenden kann.
