The MOUNTAINBIKE RACINGTEAM is pleased to announce a new partnership with the AIGO-TEC GmbH. AIGO-TEC, a German manufacturer of high-quality valves, will immediately become an official partner, supporting the German professional UCI cycling-team with technical expertise and jointly developed components for future World Cup competitions.

The collaboration with the AIGO-TEC GmbH is fully dedicated to the highest quality standards. All valves and components from AIGO-TEC are manufactured in Germany, with a strong focus on precision, durability, and reliability. This “Made in Germany” production ensures that both materials and workmanship meet the demanding requirements of professional racing, while remaining practical and accessible for recreational athletes as well. In addition, the partnership places a strong emphasis on close product development. Working together with the Racingteam, AIGO-TEC GmbH will continuously improve its products. Regular testing and feedback sessions, including input from international professionals and World Cup winners, will flow directly into ongoing development. The goal is to create components that meet the highest demands of both competition and training. With more than 90 patent applications, the company, founded in 1920 by Richard Steiff, clearly demonstrates its strong spirit of innovation. “With the AIGO-TEC GmbH, we have gained a partner who shares our core values: the highest quality standards, precision, and genuine passion. We are also connected by a global mindset combined with down-to-earth Swabian roots. The sustainable interaction between the automotive and bike industries perfectly matches our vision of modern, urban mobility,” says Team Manager Steffen Thum.

As part of the partnership, joint testing programs, development cycles, and quality control processes are planned, both during training and in competition. The shared objective is to deliver products that withstand the highest demands and optimally support athlete performance. “We are proud to work with a professional UCI team like the Racingteam. Feedback from World Cup winners, both male and female, is an essential resource for us, helping us continuously optimize our valves for bicycle components and beyond,” adds Marina Graumann, Key Account Manager at AIGO-TEC GmbH.
