Our riders’ safety is our top priority! Welcome to BOPLAN®

City Mountainbike is pleased to welcome BOPLAN® as official partner for the UCI Mountain Bike Eliminator World Cup.

BOPLAN® made its first appearance in the Eliminator discipline at the UCI Mountain Bike Eliminator World Championships last year in Waregem. In its role as official supplier, BOPLAN® will work closely with City Mountainbike and provide several safety products on strategic points along the race course to secure the safety of all athletes.

The modular safety solutions of BOPLAN® are made from high-performance flexible polymer that absorbs the energy from an impact, thereby highly reducing the risk of injury or collision damage.

“This collaboration will allow us to link our brand to an exciting cycling format. Our support and presence at the UCI Mountain Bike Eliminator World Cup are strategic choices that are important to us with regards to a long-term vision in the sports sector,” BOPLAN® stated.

“Taking serious safety precautions has always been our top priority,” concludes City Mountainbike. “We’re very excited to have BOPLAN® on board for a better future”.
