Porsche Driving Pleasure, Experienced on Two Wheels


A new model has been born from Porsche's bike series, developed for sporty riding not only on-road but also off-road.

The Porsche bike boasts a flowing design reminiscent of its four-wheeled counterparts. The "Bike RX," which handles even rugged off-road terrain with ease, features a Shimano 20-speed gear system and 27.5-inch wheels, while its carbon fiber frame contributes to stability, lightness, and shock absorption. Selected components include DT Swiss air suspension forks and hydraulic disc brakes from Magura, known as "Germany's brake specialists."

Meanwhile, the "Bike RS," which makes its presence felt on the road, also incorporates carbon components. Its total weight is a mere 9kg. Equipped with Shimano XTR components and ultra-light Magura brakes, it promises a comfortable ride for active urban use as well as long-distance journeys.

The entry-level "Bike" model is equipped with an easy-to-shift Shimano 8-speed internal gear hub. A low-friction gear belt quietly transmits pedaling power to the wheel, while Magura MT26 disc brakes provide high safety. Its capabilities as a city bike are more than sufficient.
