21 February 2024 – Taipei, Taiwan: In just 14 days, TAIPEI CYCLE 2024 will open its doors to a global audience and present the very best offerings from the cycling industry. Taking place from March 6-9, the event will feature 950 exhibitors including industry leaders such as LOOK Cycle, FSA, Continental and FACTOR, across 3,500 booths. This year, the show will underline four key themes, Micro-mobility, Culture and Lifestyle, Startup and Innovation and Green Action.
Pascal Navarro, APAC Export Area Manager at LOOK Cycle and CORIMA Wheels, said: "LOOK Cycle and CORIMA Wheels have a renowned track record for their commitment to innovative bicycle design. It seems logical for both brands to be part of Taipei Cycle Show 2024, dedicated to showcasing future technology in the cycling industry. This year we are thrilled to showcase our latest range of high-performance bicycles, including the 795 Blade RS ridden by WorldTour pro racing Team Cofidis, and new pedal technology to the APAC region and international cycling community."
Claudio Marra, CEO at Full Speed Ahead, said: "The Taipei Cycle Show is undoubtedly the most significant international event for the bicycle industry. It holds this status due to its timing as the first major event of the year, and its location, which provides convenient access from Australia, South and North America and of course, Europe, makes it the ideal meeting place for key figures in the global cycling industry."
Calvin Chan, COO at Factor Bikes and Black Inc, said: "As an international brand headquartered in Taiwan, we at Factor and Black Inc always look forward to connecting with our friends and peers when the global cycling community descends upon Taipei Cycle each year. Despite the rapid pace of change in how business is done, Taipei Cycle continues to provide an invaluable opportunity for everyone in our industry to meet face-to-face and collectively set the course for where cycling should go."
