At WAW Components, we have a strong belief: to create the best MTB parts on the market, it’s not enough to innovate in the lab. You have to be “Wired”—connected—to those who push our products to the limit every day.
That is why our design process for Trial, Dirt, and Street MTB components is intrinsically linked to a constant feedback loop with riders of all levels. By listening to the community, we aren’t just selling parts; we are writing the future standards of the discipline together.
The Elite as a Lab: The Role of Champions
One of WAW’s major advantages is its collaboration with brands like Crewkerz (16-time World Champion) and Ozonys, and renowned athletes such as Jack Carthy and Theo Poudret. These riders are our rolling laboratory.
- Extreme Testing: In UCI competitions, our components are subjected to the most violent stresses. Every jump, every support, every move in a zone generates crucial data and feedback.
- Millimetric Precision: Professionals demand perfection. Their feedback allows us to adjust the geometry of our stems, the balance of our wheels, or the rigidity of our AS30 cranksets, ensuring a level of performance that machine tests cannot reproduce.
Thanks to them, every WAW component is proven and validated under the most demanding race conditions before reaching your bike.
Beyond the Pro: The Demands of the Everyday Rider
While the elite validate performance, amateur and passionate riders validate reliability and durability. The “Wired” spirit extends to everyone who uses our parts on their local spots.
An MTB component can be fast, but if it doesn’t withstand the repeated abuse of Street or Dirt for the everyday rider, it is not a WAW component.
- Durability and Longevity: Amateurs demand maximum lifespan for their investment. We listen to their feedback on hub wear, rim strength, or coating resistance.
- Versatility: The majority of riders use their MTB in diverse situations. Their feedback ensures that our innovative parts (like our drivetrain systems) are just as effective on a technical trail as they are in an urban trial zone.
At WAW, development is a dialogue. Every bike part is a co-created solution, addressing the real-world challenges you encounter on the terrain.
Innovation is a Conversation
Our Wild And Wired commitment means that innovation is not a closely guarded secret, but the result of an open conversation. It is by staying connected and listening that we can continue to provide high-quality MTB components that not only support champions but allow every rider to push their own limits.
