To help support our Bespoked Dresden coverage, Ergon bike components sponsored a special gallery with builds featuring their products, including some of our favorite saddles, grips, and bar tape. Below, our 2024 Bespoked Dresden Part 04, our final report from the show,  features bicycles from Corrent Components, Kobel, Quokka, Rizzo, Scarab, Significant Other, and Sueess.  Scroll on down to take it all in!

We’d like to thank ERGON for sponsoring our Bespoked Dresden coverage. Lots of us over here at The Radavist ride Ergon’s grips and saddles. We’re honored to have our hard work supported by such a great company.

Corrent Components Clockwork Trail/Enduro Bike

This trail/enduro bike (use can vary depending on setup) comes from Corrent Components in Lofsdalen, Sweden. The frame, handlebar, stem, and fender are all made in-house – from the carbon layup to the CNC machining. Instead of using any paint, the frame and components are sanded and polished so if there were any imperfections or blemishes they would be noticeable (and I didn’t notice anything).

The frame’s interesting shape is a result of its design and mechanical properties rather than of looks. All of the connection points are placed specifically to absorb energy from riding and suspension forces. Tracing a line from pivot points to the head tube makes this purpose-built design even more apparent.

Kobel Cycles Squirrel Gravel Adventure Bike

Named “Squirrel,” this gravel bike from Kobel can fit up to 50 mm tires with comfortable geo and has quite a few standout detailed elements. Based in the cycling hub of Freiburg, Quirin built the steel frame, stem, and rear rack in his workshop.

Quirin mounted the water bottle cages as low as possible in order to maximize frame bag fitment (a detail often overlooked). Additionally, the eye-catching cable routing becomes airborne as it exits the top tube and enters the seatstay. The rack, which is quite the elegant design features a woven platform.

Quokka Cycles Gravel Touring Bike

In our first gallery from the show, we saw a very nice track bike from Kang at Quokka Cycles. In another drop bar variant from the French builder, he also was showing his personal gravel bike. It’s a stock model from his range of offerings called the Voyager Monster Gravel, which has a standard geometry and brazed in Kang’s signature style with smooth filed fillets.

This show build was a collaboration with Tune components, in addition to Ergon, and features Tune’s new integrated alloy stem and headset. Additionally, bag and apparel maker Cours S’il Pleut  fashioned the stunning luggage in white, which are nicely congruent with the bike’s overall paint and color scheme.

Rizzo Cycles Titanium 3D Integrated All-Road

This integrated titanium all-road is a Rizzo Cycles specialty. Based in Madrid, Spain, Reuben Rizzo has been building bikes for nearly ten years now with some great results. His materials of choice are titanium and steel, and he enjoys building bikes for folks that can’t find what they want anywhere else.

Made to fully incorporate the Chris King Aeroset, this all-road frame is as clean as it gets. It will clear tires up to 40 mm and, with a roadie geo and playful 415 mm chainstays, the rider can choose any surface to ride. The anodization it all done in Ruben’s Madrid workshop. Looking closely at the masking and colors, this is not an easy task.

Rizzo Cycles Dirt Jumper

Ruben Rizzo provided this fun description of his dirt jumper project: “Three year ago I was invited to the Chris King open house, when I stepped in the factory’s back door I met Oscar from Simple Bike Co, his new DJ frame was still warm, just welded, I handed it and I thought “wooow I want to weld one like this”. Oscar and that trip blew my mind and made me grow as a builder.”

“The time come for this show and I used this frame to try some ideas I had in my mind for a while like a chainstays complete yoke on a custom BB to avoid distortion from the huge welds around it. This bike took way more time than expected and it almost don’t get it to the show because of a mistake by the courier company. I did the crazy splatter anodizing finish by myself and it came out unexpectedly better than I could imagine. Some 5DEV, Ergon and ENVE goods on it and now I’m obliged to some serious laps on the new pumptrack built two minutes away from my home; winter training fun!”

Scarab Cycles Santa Rosa Integrated Road Bike

Scarab Cycles has been on a quest to evolve and expand their offerings, adding more and more stunning finish options along the way. Debuted earlier this year, the The Colibrí Damping System (CDS) replaces the traditional steel seatmast with a carbon alternative to better dampen vibrations. The Colibrí system is available as an upgrade on a number of Scarab models including the Santa Rosa, Apuna (All-road) and Paramo.

The paint scheme on this bike is known as Fractal Fruit, and the specific colors come from monarch chrysalises chosen by its owner. Like every Scarab bike, everything is welded and finished in-house in Colombia.

Significant Other Titanium All-Road Bike

One of the SRAM Inclusivity Scholars, Ashley King of Significant Other Bikes loves to weld, and her titanium all-road bike is another example of her abilities. Made with Reynolds mandrel-butted titanium tubing, the thin offset chainstays are the perfect opportunity to show off Ashley’s welding skills and attention to detail.

The finish was done in collaboration with Ashley’s shopmate, Flux Customs, as identified on the color-matched fork. The paint is intended to appear as if the bike was a “barn find,” which contrasts starkly with the expertly constructed frame made in space-age material.

Sueess Frameworks Gravel Adventure Bike

Stefan Sueess of Sueess Frameworks builds titanium gravel, adventure, and mountain bikes from his workshop in Switzerland. An avid endurance race dot-watcher, Stefan designed a bicycle he felt would be adventure-ready for many popular distance cycling events. Knowing many of these routes traverse rough roads, he started with the Cane Creek Invert fork and built a frame around it.

Geometrically, the frame features long chainstays and a tall stack for comfort while also easily accommodating extensions and/or aero bars. The smokey finish, which references the campfires many folks make at night on tour, is the result of a creative water transfer process. The rack is custom-made with 3D-printed rack tabs, which perfectly fit the frame, in addition to the dropouts made to accommodate UDH standards.
