German bike manufacturer Canyon Bicycles GmbH created a lightweight and sustainable 3D-printed prototype for BIKE Magazin’s ‘Ride Green’ campaign. Canyon contacted Materialise to produce the parts and used 3D printing (3DP) to achieve the frame’s unique shape. The mountain bike’s technical and environmentally-friendly qualities propelled it ahead of the pack in the cycling industry, as the bike was nominated for the 3D Pioneers Challenge (3DPC) 2022 Award.
