Kemo Bikes release frame featuring TeXtreme technology

TeXtreme is the next generation carbon fiber material in the bicycle industry based on using Spread Tows (yarns) instead of yarns to achieve ultra light weight and high-performance products. Companies utilizing the TeXtreme Technology have achieved better properties on weight savings, stiffness, etc. compared to using only other carbon fiber materials.

Mario Comalli R&D Manager of Kemo Bikes says: “We are happy to have introduced Kemo to the world and the usage of TeXtreme was a key to get the desired performance in our top model. We are satisfied that TeXtreme has helped contribute to a good weight to stiffness performance improvement and additional aspect we value highly is that this is a technology that can be easily explained to the consumer market.”

Kemo Bikes are the latest project for the Comalli brothers that have over twenty years of experience in the bike industry and are known for their focus on innovation, style and design. Kemo have four technologies as the foundation for the bike range, and in the most high-performance model they have a fifth technology or key step; the TeXtreme Technology. The Kemo product range is available online with delivery to a dealer or directly at home.

“We are glad to add another bike brand into the TeXtreme user family alongside successful products that already have contributed to among others victories in recent years Tour de France races. Our goal is always to work together with the brand and provide them with a reinforcement solution that help them make the best possible product based on their needs, no matter if it is reducing weight, increasing stiffness, reducing layers in the manufacturing process or a mix of different needs”, says Andreas Martsman, VP – Marketing & Sales of Oxeon.

Alongside the bike industry current TeXtreme users can be found in Formula 1, Americas Cup, golf shafts, surf boards, aircraft interiors, rowing boats,  skis, snowboards, ice hockey sticks, NASCAR and various industrial and advanced aerospace applications.
