Mores unveils carbon fibre made designer bike

March 18, 2013 - Germany

MORES reveals the carbon monocoque running bike “Petitpierre”, the world’s most exclusive designer running bike ever built, to be released in early 2013. This elegant, hand-made, one-piece design combined with state-of-the-art bicycle technology meets three key children’s needs: the lowest possible center of gravity, an ultra lightweight design, and safety.

MORES, based in Munich, Germany, presents the Petitpierre, an outstanding running bike for children from 1.5 to 4 years of age. The frame of the Petitpierre is made of very high tensile strength T700c carbon fibers, mainly used in the aerospace and Formula 1 industries. The organic shape of the frame is innovative in the bicycle sector, with unique features for children.

The frame, super-slim top and down tubes lend the Petitpierre a unique visual lightness and timeless beauty. Borrowing from the beauty of classic bicycles, the Petitpierre running bike’s organic style is unmistakable. In an interplay of opposites – acute angles and long, delicate curves – the elements harmoniously join together to achieve timeless exclusivity. Light is softly broken by the clearly-defined angles, rendering the design in a display of elegance.

The beautiful overall form is conveyed via detailed design, even in less noticeable areas, all stemming from a single idea. This is the trademark of MORES, distinctly evident in this running bike and which sets them apart from other manufacturers. MORES delivers not only a technically high-grade product; they put children’s feelings into the design.

The extremely low center of gravity allows even very young children (1.5 years) to handle the run bike perfectly with minimal effort. The weight of 3.3kg allows every child in this age to lift the bike and ride for a long while without getting tired. The frame-integrated footrest allows additional relaxed riding. This results in more flexibility and greater range - even up to several kilometers.

The MORES Petitpierre running bike is also the first run bike worldwide with three integrated LED flashlights: two on each side of the handlebar and one integrated into the saddle. Ergonomic, easy-pull brakes are implemented ergonomically into the design, since children ride faster as they grow older. All of results in significantly increased safety Thirty years of experience with carbon-fiber laminates are incorporated into this bike's carbon monocoque construction.

High-tensile-strength carbon-fiber mats and synthetic resins are converted into super-high-quality frames and forks using a patented X7 technology. Know-how and competence from aerospace engineering and applied processes make these bikes unique, setting them apart from all of the big bicycle manufacturers. Through commitment and excellent in innovation and design, the MORES Petitpierre is the perfect run bike for your first, second and third child. MORES is honored to introduce the first high-tech and luxury run bike designed for demanding children.
