“It takes a brave Company to keep costs down to charge the customer less, but once you do, make people the centre of their own universe and amazing things will happen.”
Deon Retief, Born in South Africa in 1964. Born into a middle class family and Youngest of 5 kids. Was a highly gifted sportsman in both football and Rugby. His parents made him move high schools at a crucial stage and the new school kids knew he had a reputation of sporting talent and they excluded him from their social groups.
He had vowed to learn from this experience which shaped his beliefs for later years of business to build a life and brand that was inclusive and not Elitist.
Combining his love for sports and his brother's love for cycling, it was a natural course for him to take to pursue the sport of business. He joined forces with his brother Anton in 1987, and imported the Diodora cycling shoe brand from Italy. In 1994 they acquired the Trek Bikes Distribution rights. During 1994-2002 selling Trek they won 2 coveted Distributor of the Year awards.
As a Teenager he admired the craft and engineering of Germany and was a young fan of the Porsche brand & museum. He wanted to Prove his worth in the toughest bicycle market in the world so In 2010 Immigrated to Stuttgart Germany.
The Founders experience distributing brands like Trek, Diadora and Campagnolo led him to a question: how could we build a different type of company. One that could make a greater impact?
A company the right size to scale, that is focused on the customer and not focused on Pro Teams, but rather on developing the Right Product for the Right Price - where the Customer is the Real Hero!
The company wants to demonstrate that with passion, determination, creativity and empathy we could build a sustainable business by doing good in this world without Charging a premium for our Bikes. We dedicated years to keep costs down so we could charge Less.
