Deus Cycleworks presents: Bronco

Oct 31, 2017

We are thrilled to present you with BRONCO, the new arrival from Deus Cycleworks. Steel has again been chosen for this fantastic mountain bike ... But why steel? The answer is simple, we wanted to create an eternal, uncompromising bike, able to withstand the stresses imposed by intensive use, and only steel with its mechanical characteristics, can guarantee this result.

BRONCO is the first purely off-road mountain bike designed by Deus. It is a project based on a frame that is fully created in Italy with Colombus tubes, thru-axles, a Fox Factory 32 suspended fork with 100 mm excursion with Kashima coating, to increase sliding and durability, it is finished off with Sram XX1 Eagle gold 12 speeds and Sram roam 50 29 " wheels.

BRONCO has been designed with specific geometries for limitless offroad riding, with the aim of creating the most reactive, intuitive and powerful bike possible, with a 71 ¬∞ steering angle and a very short wheelbase which is best appreciated on trail and single track.

BRONCO at ROC D'AZUR Before the Roc D'Azur, Bronco had never left the DEUS CYCLEWORKS workshop so opting for a real test on a true MTB track was bound to stir up some excitement. It was first tested on the classic Roc D'Azur route; 1400 m of cumulative elevation gains and 56 km of pure off-road trails, singletrack, fast, technical gravel downhill runs, steep uphills with a sting in their tail, all in all the perfect terrain to test a true MTB like the Bronco. At first glance

BRONCO is very impressive. It grabs your attention with really cool graphics and a striking mix of colours - black, metallic gold, brown and orange. It certainly doesn't go unnoticed maintaining a classic / retro lifestyle feel but at the same time sitting at the cutting edge with regards to components, geometries and technical solutions such as the rear pivot pin and the conical steering.

Si √® scelto nuovamente l'acciaio per la produzione di questa fantastica mountain bike perch√© l'acciaio? La risposta √® semplice, abbiamo voluto creare una bici eterna, senza compromessi, capace di resistere alle sollecitazioni imposte dall'uso intensivo e solo l'acciaio con le sue caratteristiche meccaniche, avrebbe potuto garantirci questo risultato.

BRONCO √® la prima mountain bike concepita da Deus in ambito off road puro. E' un progetto basato su un telaio interamente realizzato in Italia con tubazioni Columbus, perno passante posteriore, sterzo conico che accoglie la forcella Fox Factory 32 con perno passante e trattamento Kashima degli steli, per aumentare la scorrevolezza e la durata, gruppo completo Sram XX1 Eagle gold 12 velocit√† e ruote Sram roam 50 29".

BRONCO √® stata realizzata con geometrie specifiche per l'utilizzo offroad senza limiti, con l' obiettivo di avere una bici il pi√π reattiva possibile, intuitiva e performante, con angolo di sterzo da 71¬∞ ed un interasse veramente corto che trova nei trail e nei singletrack il suo vero godimento. BRONCO alla ROC D'AZUR

BRONCO prima di tale evento non era mai uscita dall' officina di DEUS CYCLEWORKS e si √® optato per un test vero e proprio su un percorso da vera MTB per generare sensazioni pure. Il percorso su cui √® stata testata per la prima volta √® quello classico della ROC D'AZUR, 1400 metri di dislivello e 56km di puro off road, trail, singletrack, discese sconnesse, veloci e tecniche, salite pedalate e ripide, insomma il terreno ideale per testare una vera MTB come lo √® BRONCO.

Di primo impatto BRONCO risulta estremamente bella, accattivante e con una grafica veramente cool, soprattutto con questa colorazione che mischia il nero, l' oro metallizzato, il marrone e l' arancione. Di sicuro non si passa inosservati, mantenendo un life-style classico/retr√≤ ma allo stesso tempo all'avanguardia per quanto riguarda la componentistica, le geometrie e le soluzioni tecniche come il perno passante posteriore e lo sterzo conico.

ENGLISH TEXT BELOW

Setiap tahun, teman-teman kita Tasix Adventure—penyelenggara petualangan ban berlumpur dan adrenalin berbahan bakar terbaik di Bali—mengadakan acara akhir pekan berkemah yang sangat dinanti-nantikan. Mereka menamakannya “ The Wild,” dan jujur saja, tidak ada kata yang lebih pas dari itu.

Ini bukan sekadar acara; ini adalah petualangan wajib bagi siapa saja yang mencintai tanah, tantangan, dan persahabatan yang hanya bisa terjalin saat tertawa melihat teman lain terjatuh.

Hal tentang The Wild adalah misterinya. Kamu tidak tahu ke mana akan pergi, bagaimana sampai di sana, atau apa yang akan kamu temui—seperti hidup, tapi dengan lebih banyak asap knalpot.

Tahun ini, The Wild yang berlangsung pada 7 Desember 2024, mengumpulkan 135 pecinta motor enduro, trail, dan cross di Desa Kopi, Tabanan. Tepat pukul 9 pagi, kami berangkat menuju Desa Gesing, Singaraja. Rute tetap dirahasiakan hingga hari acara, meningkatkan sensasi penasaran dan antusiasme. Dengan dibagi menjadi beberapa kelompok kecil, kami melengkapi diri dengan perlengkapan motocross lengkap untuk menghadapi tantangan musim hujan.

Perjalanan? Murni magis. Jalur berkelok melalui permata tersembunyi Bali, di mana setiap tikungan menawarkan pemandangan yang memukau atau hampir membuat jantung berhenti. Rute tahun ini menghadirkan medan tanah liat merah—dijuluki tanah "keramik" karena teksturnya yang licin dan keras saat basah. Untuk melintasinya, diperlukan teknik khusus yang disebut “paddling the throttle,” sebuah manuver yang mendebarkan dengan motor yang sering bergoyang liar. Dari kejauhan, mungkin terlihat lucu, tetapi saat di atas motor? Ceritanya berbeda.

Setelah menempuh 68 kilometer petualangan liar, kami tiba di perkemahan di puncak bukit yang sudah dipenuhi tenda-tenda peserta lain dan deru knalpot. Destinasi selalu mencuri perhatian, dan yang satu ini tidak terkecuali—tempat tinggi dengan pemandangan 360 derajat yang menakjubkan dari laut, gunung, hingga kota.

Saat hujan turun, tenda-tenda didirikan, dan malam itu diisi dengan berbagi cerita tentang penyelamatan heroik dan kecelakaan yang menggelikan. Dan tentu saja, ada balapan. Bayangkan sekelompok pengendara penuh semangat meluncur di perbukitan dalam kekacauan yang terkontrol. Balapan tahun ini termasuk duel 1 lawan 1 yang seru di sekitar puncak bukit, dengan peserta menyelesaikan dua putaran penuh adrenalin.

Bukan soal menang; ini tentang hadir, tertawa, dan menikmati momen. Para pemenang dan peserta tercepat yang mencapai puncak bukit dirayakan dengan hadiah, tetapi senyuman, persahabatan, dan kebersamaan membuat semua orang merasa seperti juara.

The Wild tahun ini benar-benar sesuai namanya, bahkan lebih. Petualangan, tawa, dan cukup banyak tanah di gigi untuk menyebutnya otentik—kami tidak akan menginginkannya dengan cara lain. Terima kasih yang sebesar-besarnya kepada semua peserta yang menjadikannya pengalaman tak terlupakan. Sampai jumpa di petualangan berikutnya!

Every year, our mates over at Tasix Adventure—Bali’s finest purveyors of muddy tyres and fuel-driven adrenaline—host their much-anticipated camp-out weekend. They’ve named it “Wild,” and honestly, there’s no better word for it.

It’s not just an event; it’s a pilgrimage for anyone who loves dirt, daring, and the kind of camaraderie you can only forge while laughing at someone else’s wipeout.

The thing about Wild is that it’s shrouded in mystery. You don’t know where you’re going, how you’ll get there, or what you’ll find—kind of like life, but with more exhaust fumes.

This year’s Wild, held on Saturday, December 7, 2024, brought together 135 enthusiasts of enduro, trail, and cross motorcycles at Desa Kopi, Tabanan. The route was kept a secret until the event day, heightening the thrill of the unknown. At exactly 9 am, they shared the destination, Desa Gesing, Singaraja, Divided into small groups, we geared up with full motocross kits to tackle the rainy season’s challenges.

The ride? Pure magic. Twisting trails through Bali’s hidden gems, where every turn promised either breathtaking views or breathtaking near-misses. This year’s route featured red clay terrain—nicknamed "ceramic" soil for its slick, hard texture when wet. Navigating it required a special technique called “paddling the throttle,” a nerve-wracking maneuver that had bikes swaying wildly. From a distance, it might have looked hilarious, but on the bike? It was a whole other story.

After 68 kilometres of this wild adventure, we arrived at the hilltop campsite already alive with the buzz of activity and the roar of exhausts. The destination always steals the spotlight, and this one was no exception—a high-altitude perch offering stunning 360-degree views of the sea, mountains, and city.

As the rain came down, tents went up, and the evening was all about swapping stories of heroic saves and laughable crashes. And then there were the races. Picture a pack of overexcited riders tearing up the hillside in what can only be described as controlled chaos. This year’s races included thrilling 1-on-1 duels around the hilltop, with participants pushing through two laps of sheer adrenaline.

It wasn’t just about winning; it was about showing up, laughing, and embracing the moment. The race winners and the fastest hilltop arrivals were celebrated with prizes, but the smiles, the camaraderie, and the shared triumphs made everyone feel like champions.

This year’s Wild lived up to its name and then some. Adventure, laughter, and just enough dirt in your teeth to call it authentic—we wouldn’t have it any other way. A massive thank you to all the participants who made it unforgettable. See you on the next adventure!
