Front forks

Fork

Wide Bone rigid

The Koga Wide Bone is a very solid and stable front fork. It is intended for riding with heavy luggage and over uneven terrain. Material: triple hardened 7005 aluminium. It's a fork for people who do not want suspension - and hence a low-maintenance and robust cycle.

For KS-CR 28:
Front fork, specially made to use with the KS-CR 28 frame.
Based on a lugged crown, made from Tange chrome-molybdenum tubing.

A rigid fork is also lighter than a suspended type, and offers more direct handling.

Koga Feathershock

The "Feathershock" shockabsorber is an intelligent suspension front fork, it only gets active when necessary, so in normal circumstances its feels like a regular front fork.

The "Feathershock" shockabsorber has a sporty appearance (looks like a regular front), is comfortable and has a lighter weight compare to a suspension front fork.

Please take notice, that it isn't possible to combine wider tires than 37 mm with this "Feathershock" shockabsorber.

So, the ideal combination for your Touring bike.

Suntour NCX-E RL Lite

he Suntour NCX is a lightweight suspension fork, with an air spring suspension system. The advantage of air suspension is the simple adjustment of the fork to the rider's weight by increasing or decreasing the air pressure.

The suspension in the NCX can be locked out with a lever on the handlebar.
The suspension in the NCX 26" can be locked during riding by a lever on the fork.

The magnesium lower legs and the air suspension make for a super lightweight fork.

Magura hydraulic HS 33

The solid design of the Magura HS 33 hydraulic brake, proven and appreciated by extreme globetrotters like Tilmann Waldthaler over more than 100.000 km guarantees a long term riding pleasure. The change of brake pads is a piece of cake, even for riders who are not technically orientated. The fact that these brakes are virtually maintenance free might be the main factor for enthusiastic bicyclists to choose MAGURA brakes. No wonder, after all MAGURA gives a generous 5-year leak proof warranty! Incidentally the German manufacturers employ mineral oil as the hydraulic fluid, making the system very easy to service. It works flawlessly over years, lubricates the whole system, neither absorbs water nor strips your bike's paint, nor does it irritate human skin like DOT brake fluid. All in all a very smart choice.

Magura hydraulic HS 33 FIRM-tech

The solid and unique design of the Magura HS 33 FIRM-tech hydraulic brake, proven and appreciated by extreme globetrotters like Tilmann Waldthaler over more than 100.000km guarantuees a long term riding pleasure. The change of brake pads is a piece of cake, even for riders who are not technically orientated. The fact that these brakes are virtually maintenance free might be the main factor for enthousiastic bicyclists to choose MAGURA brakes. No wonder, after all MAGURA gives a generous 5-year leakproof warranty! As transmission medium the Germans use by the way mineral oil, the main reason for service friendlyness. It works flawlessly over years to come, lubricates the whole system, does neither absorb water nor strip the paintjob of your bike or attack human skin like DOT brake liquid, very smart then all in all.

The FIRM-tech construction with the brakes mounted directly on the backside of the fork reduces the weight. The user friendlyness of the system is enhanced with a double quick release mechanism that won't cause trouble, even with people whose fingers are all thumbs.

Shimano hydraulic disc

A disc brake consists of a metal disc attached to the wheel hub that rotates with the wheel. Calipers are attached to the frame and fork along with pads that squeeze together on the disc. The disc brake is hydraulically operated from the steering wheel. A hydraulic brake works by squeezing the brake lever, so the oil is pushed into the brake hose. When the oil is flowed through the hose, it enters the caliper. In the caliper the oil will be divided to the pistons and with the pressure you add to the brake lever, the pistons in the caliper will be pushed to the disc.

Disc brakes are used mainly on mountain bikes ridden off-road, but sometimes on trekking bicycles, hybrid bicycles and touring bicycles.

Advantages: Larger braking power, even in wet weather - Less sensitive to dirt - Better controllability while braking

Disadvantages: Weight - Vulnerable

When Rohloff is chosen, you will get the Shimano Deore XT hydraulic brakes & hydraulic brake levers, equipped with Rohloff disc at the rear.

The Shimano Disc brake systems use braking oil based on minerals.

Wheels

Tyres

Continental TravelContact

The globetrotter.

You can‘t develop a tyre for globetrotters on the drawing board. So that is why all of Tilmann Waldthaler‘s experience has been put to use in the development of the TravelContact. His requirements were obvious: a robust carcass with a high carrying capacity and protection against chafing and cuts, effective puncture resistance and last but not least, a tread that makes it possible to explore paths around the world quickly and safely. A foldable version is of course also available to take along as a spare. The TravelContact is ideal for touring all kinds of routes – along the Weser river in Germany or the best bikespots in the world. Extremely puncture-proof and with the SafetySystem™ Guarantee!

Schwalbe Marathon Extreme

Designed for Expedition. See the tread and it is immediately recognizable that this tire is designed for expedition and rough terrain use. But only by riding can the easy rolling ability of the Marathon Extreme be experienced. The light, yet at the same time, solid construction is made possible by the all-around SnakeSkin fabric layer. The High Density belt protects against punctures. Additionally the tire uses the latest compound. Triple Nano Compound ensures safe grip on wet roads, low rolling resistance and remarkable durability.

Schwalbe Marathon Supreme

Exceptional. Outstanding.

The best. A touring tire that can do everything.

That was the goal of our development team. For 2009 we have completely revised our : HD Ceramic Guard, Triple Nano Compound, LiteSkin side wall. The Marathon Supreme is now even lighter and faster. Puncture resistance has also been improved and its grip on wet roads remains outstanding!

Schwalbe Marathon Racer

The fastest Marathon ever. Everything is optimized for speed. Qualifier Compound and sporty, light sidewalls make the Marathon Racer extremely flexible and minimizes rolling resistance. Pure dynamics: The low weight is noticeable every time you ride. A RaceGuard belt protects against punctures.

Schwalbe Marathon Kevlar Guard

Developed over 20 years ago, at that time it was a quantum leap in performance. The first high-quality tire suitable for reliable touring and everyday use. These characteristics quickly made it popular and today it is still Europe's most riden touring tire. In the newest version with KevlarGuard and Allround tread compound it can fulfil everything that is expected of a Marathon tire: Effective puncture protection, durability and excellent handling characteristics.

Rims and spokes

KM19 Xlite / Sapim

The synergy of truly high-quality components working together is what makes a good wheel. We take the hub of the drivetrain groupset you chose. Rims, spokes and spoke nipples complete the set.

The Koga KM19 Xlite rims, made by Exal, are lighter and narrower than the KM21 Xstrong, but nevertheless still particularly strong. These rims are double-eyeletted; that means that the eyelets, into which the spokes are fastened, run through both rim walls. The eyelets are also oriented to the direction the spokes run, so that unwanted stresses in the wheel structure are minimised, making for a longer lasting wheel.

These aluminium alloy rims have an anodised layer, an extremely hard surface which practically eliminates corrosion.

The spoke nipples are Sapim Polyax nipples: these nipples were developed to be able to swivel freely within the eyelet, further reducing the chance of unwanted stresses.

The spokes also come from Sapim. These spokes are made from 18/8 stainless steel, a material with high tensile strength and excellent fatigue properties.

If you have decided on the Shimano Deore XT groupset, then a especially robust rear wheel with 40 spokes is fitted automatically. All of the other Shimano groupsets have wheels built with 36 spokes.

If you have decided on the Rohloff hub gear transmission, you will receive a wheel built with 32 spokes (Sapim Strong), in this case consisting of a Koga EX19 Xstrong rim (These rims are punched at an angle and therefore especially suitable for the Rohloff hub). Fewer spokes are required with the Rohloff hub, because the hub's symmetrical design ensures more even stress distribution than is found in the derailleur rear wheels it replaces.

For thumb testers, the saddle is complemented with generous foam padding and an ever slight channel down the center of the saddle.

Brooks B-17 Standard gents leather

First designed in the early 1900s, the BROOKS B17 is the first choice for long distance touring riders who appreciate the unsurpassed comfort provided by the original leather saddle. If you don't like sweating, no other material is as breathable as leather.

But one should note that the comfort of a Brooks leather is not always immediately apparent: at first it can feel very hard indeed. The leather takes time to adjust itself to the rider's shape, and that takes a certain number of miles - but then you have a saddle which feels like it was moulded to fit.

Brooks B-17 S Standard ladies leather

BROOKS B17 S is the B17 version for ladies. It is the choice of long distance trekking riders, who appreciate the unsurpassed comfort provided by the original Leather Saddle. If you don't like sweating, no other material is as breathable as leather.

But one should note that the comfort of a Brooks leather is not always immediately apparent: at first it can feel very hard indeed.

Seat post

Koga Aluminium 6061

A simple but effective and lightweight seat post, with a double bolt safety construction, which spread over the stress on the securing bolts. The double bolt saddle clamping system is stronger and more secure than a traditional single bolt saddle clamping system.

Material: lightweight 6061 aluminium alloy
Color: Sand blasted black

Koga Signature®

This "Koga Signature®" seat post, in black anodized, is produced out of Alloy 7075-T6, a very trustworthy and lightweight material.

The weight of the seat post is 240 grams and has an offset of 16 mm.

Beside this lightweight seat post we also have a lightweight stem available in the bike configurator, the seat post can be combined with the stem very well due to the similar design and color.

Koga alloy - Shock absorbing

A suspended seatpost is for people who want to ride in particular comfort. The seatpost absorbs irritating vibrations and shock, for example when riding over cobbles.

The Bracer Comp seatpost from Post Moderne operates using an elastomer suspension system a unit made from an elastic form of plastic works as a spring to soak up shocks. This type of shock system reduces seatpost weight, but it is not quite as effective as the more expensive and heavier air/oil or coil-spring suspension systems.

The Bracer Comp uses a reliable and simple system to attach the saddle which minimises the stress on the securing bolt. Adjusting the saddle angle is child's play as it doesn't involve pushing the saddle to and fro.

Airwings Evolution 360

The Airwings Evolution 360 is one of the highest quality saddles on the market. The quality shows in the very "fast-response" suspension characteristics: only very low forces are needed to start the suspension moving, so even the smallest bumps are "filtered out".

Please pay attention to your frame size! This seat post needs 3 cm more altitude/space than a regular seat post, this because of the suspension mechanism!

Technical details:
- Precision linear roller bearing action for maximum suspension effect and play resistance
- Overall length: 360 mm
- Travel: 50 mm
- Suspension adjustable to suit rider

Handlebars

Handlebar

PRO MTB Cross Country

The PRO MTB Cross Country is a simple, flat handlebar, robust enough for the stresses of off-road riding. The aluminium alloy from which the bar is made undergoes multiple hardening and so is particularly tough and strong. In addition the handlebar is double-butted: the tubing walls are extra thick where required and thinner where possible - so that the optimum combination of low weight, stiffness and strength is achieved.

The handlebar is lightweight. It gives a sporty riding position - depending on choice of stem - and offers relatively few possible hand positions.

- Material: double butted AL-2014-T6
- Size: 580 mm / 25.4 mm
- Colour: SB black

PRO MTB Riser 15

The PRO MBT Riser is very similar to the PRO MTB Cross Country, with the significant difference that the hands are positioned 15mm higher by the riser feature, so giving a more upright riding position.

The handlebar has been designed with the stresses of off-road riding in mind. The aluminium alloy from which the bar is made undergoes multiple hardening and so is particularly tough and strong. In addition the handlebar is double-butted: the tubing walls are extra thick where required and thinner where possible - so that the optimum combination of low weight, stiffness and strength is achieved.

- 15 mm riser model for freeride and cross-country
- Size: 580 mm / 25.4 mm
- AL-2014 construction
- Tough and durable
- Colour: SB black

Koga The Bird

The Bird is a classic aluminium touring bar, offering a comfortable riding position. In comparison with the other handlebars in the Signature® range the hands are positioned relatively close to the body and are relatively high, so that the rider can sit relatively upright - depending of course on the selection of other components, including the frame size and type of stem chosen.

Koga Multigrip

The Multigrip was developed by Koga, just like the Dali. This handlebar offers several grip positions and plenty of room. The "standard" hand position is fairly short reach and compared with the Dali, even shorter. With the hands on the sides of the bars you can really heave away hard - an ideal position for climbing. And with the hands on the tops you'll be sitting upright.

All in all the Multigrip offers a more comfortable riding position than the Dali: more upright and with the hands closer to the body. There's also more room on these handlebars.

Koga Dali

Koga developed the Dali with a single objective: to create a handlebar which is stylish and lightweight yet offers a good range of hand positions. The "standard" grip position with the brake levers and gear shifters is relatively sporty. With the hands on the sides of the bar it's similar to riding with bar ends - this position is ideal for climbs. With the hands on the top bar position the rider can sit quite upright. Adjusting the handlebar angle offers even further possibilities.

Compared to the Koga Multigrip handlebar the Dali riding position is somewhat more sporty, somewhat longer in reach and somewhat lower.

The handlebar is made from strong and lightweight 6061 aluminium alloy, heat-treated for increased strength and stiffness.

Koga Selego with bag holder

Everybody, everywhere, always a good riding position

The design of this travel bike-handlebar with multi-adjustable, multi position possibilities had been based on travel experience of years. It gives the demanding traveler a lot of possibilities to adjust his sitting position to fit his own personal wishes. The height, depth and angle of the handlebar are adjustable. You can position your hand in multiple places on the handlebar, from small and direct up to a triathlon position to overcome headwind. It's ideal for long journeys with changing circumstances. The handlebar has also a special bagholderposition on which you can mount all common handlebar bags. The handlebar has a robust design and its broad butterfly shape protects the traveler in chaotic traffic. In short, this handlebar has everything in it, which is necessary for a good and pleasant, drive. It's durable, strong, ergonomically optimized, designed to drive with luggage and save.

Stem

Koga Signature®

This "Koga Signature®" stem, in black anodized, is produced out of Alloy 6061-T6, a very trustworthy and lightweight material.
The weight of the stem is 130 grams (90 mm)/139 grams (110 mm) and has a rise of 8 degrees.

Furthermore please be informed, that the stem isn't adjustable, only the height can be changed (to add or to delete spacers).

Beside this lightweight stem we also have a lightweight seat post available in the bike configurator, the stem can be combined with the seat post very well due to the similar design and color.

PRO adjustable

With this PRO stem the angle is adjustable through 60 degrees, from 70 to 130 degrees. Compared to the Koga stem, the PRO offers a lower and more sporty riding position. In its lowest position the handlebar is 45 mm lower than at the Koga stem.

- Material: aluminium
- Multifunctional stem
- 4-bolt handlebar-clamp
- Angle-adjustability from 70 to 130 degrees
- Colour: black

Koga adjustable

With this Koga stem the angle is adjustable through 70 degrees, from 60 to 130 degrees. Compared to the PRO stem, the Koga offers a higher and more comfortable riding position.

Grips

Ritchey WCS/Koga foam

These grips are available as either short and long versions, both made from foam compound.

The short Ritchey WCS foam grips to fit the PRO MTB Cross Country, PRO MTB Riser 15 and The Bird handlebars are made from neoprene foam and even in wet weather they are slip-free and grippy. They are also super-light!

The long Koga foam grips for the Koga Multigrip, Koga Dali and Koga Selego handlebars are made from a particularly high quality soft foam designed for excellent shock and vibration absorption.

Koga leather

The Koga grips are available as either short and long versions, both made from real leather.

The short leather grips are ergonomically shaped to fit the PRO MTB Cross Country, PRO MTB Riser 15 and The Bird handlebars, giving optimised pressure distribution and correct positioning of hand and wrist (adjustable).

The long leather grips for the Koga Multigrip, Koga Dali and Koga Selego handlebars incorporate a foam base for excellent shock and vibration absorption.

Because leather is breathable, the problem of sweaty hands is much reduced.

Ergon GC2-L

Multi-position grips with integrated cold forged alu barends, which have a dual function acting as the clamps for the grip.It features a longer, ergonomically optimized barend, which is adjustable in terms of its angle on the bar.The barend and the support platform can be independently adjusted for the correct angle to allow the best fi t for individual saddle position and riding style.

Tubus Vega

The VEGA is a low-profile rear carrier. An extremely minimalist approach to carriers; it is based on the design principles of the popular LOGO model, but without the lower side-tubes, it´s a carrier made for daily use and weekend-trips. Its variable attachment system makes an easy installation on nearly all frame geometry combinations. 10 years guarantee 3 year mobile guarantee.

Tubus carrier racks are exceptional in their high quality of workmanship. Even the choice of material is exceptional: rather than use conventional aluminium, Tubus carrier racks are made from thin-walled 25CrMo4 chrome-molybdenum steel tubing. A protective layer of plastic over the entire surface shields the Tubus rack. The result is a robust, lightweight and durable product, ideal for travellers who depend heavily on their equipment.

Tubus Logo

LOGO - The ultimate choice for travelers when heel clearance is an issue. The lower mounting point of bags improves the center of gravity and also optimizes the use of upper loading area. This design also facilitates mounting on smaller frames. Since bags are mounted further aft, they permit more heel clearance. Its variable attachment system makes for easy installation on nearly all frame geometry combinations. 10 year guarantee, 3 year mobile guarantee.

Luggage

Rear carrier panniers

Vaude Signature® Back

VAUDE developed the Signature® pannier range specially for Koga Signature®. This range employs innovative Ultra Seam Technology, previously used in the prize-winning Discover pannier range. In this process the seams of the panniers are not sewn with needle and thread, but instead they are welded together. This makes the panniers more robust, lighter, and waterproof! The back panel of the panniers is made from hard plastic, which provides excellent protection for the pannier against impacts or abrasion.

In addition the panniers are equipped with the Quick Mount & Release System, so that the panniers can be easily secured to the carrier rack, and then also quickly removed.

This durable rear pannier can be comfortably and well packed through the lid closure. To improve the organization there's a built in internal mesh pocket. Another nice, practical idea is the top lid zip compartment.

Lighting

Dynamo

Shimano Sport DH-3D72

Shimano's dynamo hubs are not only compact and light in weight, they're more electrically efficient than ever. The sport hub dynamo DH-3N 71 is especially designed to have a reliable dynamo hub for sportive wheelsets with an extreme low rolling resistance.

Excellent durability is guaranteed by its double contact seal mechanism on the Ultegra/Deore XT level.

SONdelux

The SONdelux is the first hub dynamo generator that is specially designed to match with modern LED-headlights (such as Edelux, B&M Cyo and Koga Rayo). The advantage of an LED over a halogen bulb is that they are highly efficient at low power. This is why it is no longer neccessary to build a dynamo in such a way for it to give its nominal wattage at the lowest possible speed already. The SONdelux is therefore smaller and lighter than a hub dynamo that is made for a halogen lighting system (SON 28).

The no-load losses decrease when compared with the SON 28 (the most smooth-running standard hub dynamo at present) by 30 to 35%. With lights switched on, using the SONdelux saves about 1 watt of drive power. You can still reach 80 lux with the Edelux at high speeds. How-ever at 10 km/h the Edelux shines brighter than the best halogen headlights at the highest of speeds.

The SONdelux is as robust as the SON 28 with the same high-qualitiy finish. Naturally there is a 5 year guarantee, as with all Schmidt products. It is available in bright polished aluminium. The version for disc brakes has a Center Lock® mount.

Headlight

Cateye HL-EL135

Stylish and lightweight LED battery light. The light mounts easily and can then be clicked on and off, so the front light also works ideally as a torch. Three bright LEDs together with the lens system give out so much light that it can be used as a full front light. Alongside the quality of lighting the robust housing design stands out. The light has two settings: constant or flashing.

Burn time with 2 AA batteries:
- Up to 320 hours (flashing)
- Up to 80 hours (constant)

B&M Lumotec Fly

Koga Rayo Senso

The new Rayo front light is completely integrated within the front mudguard and by employing brand new lighting technology it is twice as bright as a conventional front light. This increases both active and passive safety enormously: the rider can see better, and can also be more easily seen by other road users. The lightweight ‘sandwich’ design is fastened onto the mudguard. This integration minimizes the chance of damage through external impacts. A new and higher performance LED and reflector technology, IQ-TEC, makes it possible to integrate a reflector into this compact unit, and nevertheless to achieve brightness values of over 30 Lux. With this performance the Rayo front light achieves a doubling of the illumination level. The position of the light beam can be precisely set by the click adjuster.

B&M Lumotec IQ Cyo R

Son LED Edelux

The most important characteristic of the Edelux is the outstanding light technology, which achieves a wide and even illumination of the road. The optical system ("IQ-TEC"-mirror) was developed by Busch & Müller. Rugged mechanical design, reliable electric contacts and good sealing ensure problem-free operation in daily use, regardless of weather. Efficiency and LED life span depend on its cooling. Therefore the LED is placed on a copper heat sink, which in turn conducts the heat to the aluminum housing.
