The much-loved Donauinsel-Crossrace in Vienna was fortunately saved by a joint Crowd-Funding-action.
Nearly 50 competitors took part in this demanding bike-event.
The course was highly attractive and quick.

The bikers faced fast meadow-passages, slippery incline sections and several steep ramps to run over.
The ChaseUP bike could handle all these demands without any trouble and could therefore proudly demonstrate their ability to easily work under pressure.

At this point we want to strongly express praise to the organizers for the successful revival of this demanding and fascinating race series!
It’s possibly been the amazing weather which made the start into the Cyclocross season so pleasant. Cloudless sunshine on October 15th in Langenzersdorf was the best contrivable condition for a fantastic race!
Only those, who have power, can keep up in the front. Therefore this was the perfect hardness and durability test for our new prototype.

There have been some points remaining from the last year so Felix could match with the fastest competitors in the last race of the day. He had 60 minutes to drive as much rounds as possible and achieve the best possible position.
With our prototype ChaseUP rim the bike could be moved easily over all kind of obstacles and waves of the circuit and could even facilely accelerate out of every switchback.

It’s been a fascinating event to start into the new season! We still can work on our position, but fun and passion was definitely put in the foreground this time.
Chase visited this year for the first time the Eurobike, the best known and largest bike-exposition, placed in Friedrichshafen, Germany, to cultivate existing contacts, establish new partnerships and present our concept.

Some partners and other manufacturers showed great interest in our carbon fiber parts and we are seriously content with what we achieved through the exposition.
In our next step we want to further improve our products and strengthen our relationships to our partners even more. There will be some products from our partnerships available soon.

The time trial season has not only found it’s highlight but also it’s end in the 47km long circumnavigation of the austrian lake Attersee. The event, which is also know as “King of the Lake”, has become obligatory for every lone-warrior.
The fantastic, late-summery weather led to an unbelievable number of 1150 competitors. The starting intervals between the bikers were about 15 seconds long. However, worries about traffic have proved unjustified.
Felix Schneider, starting number 836, started with his RAMS CYCLING at 3:44 p.m.

Head down and pedaling as much as possible was the motto after the countdown. For long distances like this, pacing, which means to optimally use one’s strengths, is undoubtedly the key to success. Unfortunately, Felix couldn’t use his resources ideally and therefore he lost some sweep on the last 5km.
However, with his aerodynamic ChaseUP rim out of own production, Felix could finally master the hill.
His finishing time of 1:11:25 slightly moves into the background of the impressive scenery of the Attersee due to his short preparation time and a sneaking flat tire.

On the 20th of August we traveled with great euphoria to the tiny and lovely town St. Moritz, Switzerland, to do a photo shooting.
During our journey we enjoyed the fascinating landscape and the breathtaking Moritzersee, where some of our best snapshots were taken.

It was also a perfect possibility to practically test and publicly present the strength and durability of our new carbon fiber rims.
The vast and awe-inspiring mountains in the background made our photo shooting extraordinary.

Team RAA by Chase 2nd place RAA Challenge, handcrafted in Austria, carbon, rim, Grenzgasse 111 9/6/6, St. Gabriel, Felix Schneider, Peter Fröhlich, Chase
In this year Felix Schneider and Bernhard Weis achieved the brilliant second place in the Race Around Austria Team-competition. Straight from the start all 32 Teams gave their best.
Even professional cyclists participated in the quick, 560km long race.
The weather conditions were suboptimal – partly heavy rain and nippy temperatures obviously discomforted the bikers.

The team was perfectly supported by Daniel Koller, Reinhard Schindelka and Lukas Steinbichler – and was only defeated by Team 125 Hackl.
The front wheel rim ChaseUP could clearly prove it’s high-end quality. It’s been the first success for the just three-day-old rim. Things can definitely go on in this way.
