Understanding the need for competitive edge is one thing, creating products to deliver that promise is another.

For the last five years Grammo have gradually turned that concept into a reality that includes wholly owned and developed products that will deliver race advantage across the key areas of weight, performance, and reliability.

In 2006 Grammo introduced the Viper range of wheels and components to satisfy rider's needs for better options on keenly priced performance carbon wheels and accessories. The line was well received with distribution being picked up in all the key regions including Australia, Belgium, France, Germany, USA, UK. There was no resting on the laurels of that initial success as Grammo followed with the announcement at Interbike 2007 of the ground breaking Factor wheels, a line of sophisticated carbon race wheels designed to combine the benefits of CFD design and real time wind tunnel testing with a deep understanding of actual vs virtual conditions.

The resulting 50mm race wheels come in two versions, a TT variant with deep carbon spokes which emulate a wheel of much greater depth while keeping the advantage of a lighter shallower profile which does not suffer in cross winds. The ground breaking design was much acclaimed and in the following years has been copied at least twice. The SL version is a similar concept aimed at the road racer.

2008 saw the wheel line broaden to include Track specific wheels, entry and premium level clincher wheels, and a line of cyclocross specific wheels that again broke with the norm of currently available wheels.

The same year saw the launch of the F Series carbon wheels and components, aimed specifically at the race market, this line is now the core of the Grammo range and the line where all current development is focused.

Initially based on two new rim designs the F5:4 and the F8:4 the wheels had been long in development and heavily tested in both virtual and real environments in order to ensure that the goals set at the beginning of the project were clearly met or exceeded.

2010 brings a whole host of new developments and opportunities for the guys from New Zealand.

With a well established line of wheels, bars and stems for the road market, the next area of interest was mountain bikes, focused clearly on areas where knowledge and experience gained in their core market could be transferred to achieve the same balance of cost, performance and innovation.

An area of great interest to the Grammo team had always been bike fit. That edge gained by having the bike completely tuned to the individual in order to gain optimum performance. Grammo concluded that there was scope to enter this area and design components and tools that would allow every rider the same access to the ultimate race package that would normally only be achieved by professionals or at high cost.

With this in mind the concept of frame packages was conceived, but not just any frame package.

With their combined knowledge of racing situations and of manufacturing and production techniques, Grammo have been able to launch a range of frames with their own geometry where emphasis is on Competitive advantage, Comfort (fit), and Carbon technology. The resulting C3 designs will now be rolled out into a range of both road and mountain bikes in areas where demand for performance gain through technology will help Grammo to continue to grow their product beyond the initial success of their wheels.
