Platzangst presents
From Gravel to Gravity
PLATZANGST has its roots in the mountain bike freeride movement of the 90s. The prevailing bike fashion at the time was cribbed from road cycling and was quite body-hugging. Downhill-oriented freeriders, however, were more at home on the motocross shelf in terms of fashion. So it was just the right time to launch a brand specifically for gravity mountain bikers who would get claustrophobic in conventional Lycra gear.
More than 20 years and several collections later: PLATZANGST has grown along with cycling and now offers the right fashion for all off-road-oriented cycling styles. The roots of downhill and freeride have not been forgotten, the variants enduro and trail biking have been added – the rather urban dirt jump has always been there as the little brother of freeride. However, the trend topic of the last few years has clearly been gravel biking and PLATZANGST was also a pioneer here and was one of the first brands to launch collections just for gravel bikers.
Platzangst is going bricks and mortar – the brand, which is otherwise sold exclusively online, will now be available for the first time to touch, try on and take home. With “From Gravel to Gravity” NEW ØRD3R not only plays the complete range of the new PLATZANGST collection “Above Seasons”, but also curates the matching bikes and accessories for each of these categories. Our cooperation partners are SANTA CRUZ, NS BIKES, DARTMOOR and RONDO.
