The Spark RC Visione isn’t nearly eye-catching design—it’s a whole rethink of user-focused integration, made potential by state-of-the-art 3D printing (and wooden).
3D-Printing and Wood Prototypes
On the core of the Imaginative and prescient is a complicated 3D-printed handlebar, co-developed by Syncros and German manufacturing powerhouse TRUMPF.
This handlebar hides brake hoses with a snap-in channel design, eliminating the inconvenience of routing cables internally. Whereas Syncros’ engineers, Maxime Lallemand, and Quentin Beauregard, executed the engineering finesse, the concept started with a picket prototype—old-school creativity assembly cutting-edge expertise.
No Wires and Clear Traces
With RockShox’s wi-fi Flight Attendant system on board, mechanical suspension cables are a factor of the previous. The bike leverages SRAM’s AXS tech, fine-tuned with ultra-minimalist Zirbel Tornado controllers tucked discreetly into the customized handlebar. There is no such thing as a exterior muddle, simply clear, exact shifting.
Superior Manufacturing for Trip-Prepared Parts
TRUMPF’s 3D printing prowess enabled the manufacture of this light-weight 6061 aluminum handlebar with complicated shapes that had been unattainable by way of conventional strategies.
The end result? A totally licensed, ISO-tested part that’s prepared for real-world trails.
Drool-Worthy Spec
