Syncros: Pioneering bicycle components for cycling
Syncros is a name that is synonymous with quality, innovation and durability in the world of cycling. The company was founded in 1986 by Peter Hamilton and Pippin Osborne in Vancouver, Canada. The founders were enthusiastic cyclists themselves and pursued the vision of producing components and accessories that were not only functional, but also particularly robust and durable. This philosophy led to Syncros quickly becoming a favourite brand among mountain bike enthusiasts.
In the early years, Syncros focussed primarily on the production of components such as stems, handlebars and seatposts, which impressed with their simple design and durability. With increasing success and the growing popularity of mountain biking, the company continuously expanded its product range to meet the changing needs of riders. In 2012, Syncros was acquired by the Scott Sports Group, a manufacturer itself known for technical innovation in cycling. This acquisition helped Syncros to establish its products even more broadly worldwide and to further develop its range technically.
Today, the Syncros product portfolio includes a wide range of bicycle components and accessories. From classic parts such as handlebars, stems and seat posts to advanced tyre repair systems and tools, the company offers everything that ambitious cyclists need. A special feature of the brand are the integrated cockpit systems, which combine aerodynamics and functionality in a unique design. A highlight in the Syncros product range is the ‘Silverton SL’ wheel series, which impresses with its lightweight construction and rigidity. Made from carbon and constructed in a special monocoque design, these wheels offer maximum efficiency and performance. These characteristics make them an ideal choice for competition.
Close co-operation with professional athletes and constant feedback from the grassroots ensure that the products meet the high demands of users. Syncross also attaches great importance to sustainability by developing durable products and using environmentally friendly materials.
