Racing Thrills and Spills: Traction Development Team’s Epic Weekend in Nauders

Jannik tackled the steep terrain like a pro, Marius powered through pedal-heavy stages, and Johannes kept it steady to claim the overall win in his class! And let’s not forget Niclas and Nevio, who brought serious grit and determination to the Reschenpass stages. Check out the full recap and catch all the action in our video behind the link!

RAAW Laps: Fest Series - Royal Hills POV by Stevie Schneider

Join RAAW Ambassador Stevie Schneider as he takes his Yalla! for a ride over the legendary "Royal Hills" in France in this short but action-packed video. We crunched the numbers (sort of) and are pretty confident that his front wheel spends more time in the air than on the ground—so get ready for some serious airtime. But hey, don’t take our word for it. Check out the video here!

We’ve just added some new articles to the knowledge base to help make things easier for you.

We’re all about making sure you’ve got the info you need, and as always, if you have any questions, we’re here to help.

As always, have fun on the trails and thanks for your support!
