"I still have the same motivation and I’m looking forward to every race." In a new interview, we spoke with the reigning national champion in the Masters category, Petr Hampl. How is he looking forward to the season, which races has he already completed, and how is he preparing?

“… I confirmed that what works for me in Czechia works abroad too …”Tomáš Novotný hopped on the new Pells Raw 1, headed to Italy, and rode his way to silver at the 2025 Italy Divide. Oh – and for the first time in his life, he gave his bike a name. Read the full story.

A versatile gravel bike. Performance-driven. Multi-day bikepacking. Afternoon ride. Even accepts the commute. Raw. When you don't want to get off your bike. Not even at home.

Why did we decide to rebrand? And what’s the story behind our new colors?

The proven and popular series of Thorr Evo and Thorr electric mountain bikes could not be missing from the PELLS 2023 collection. While the Thorr Evo is based on top Bosch electric motors and can handle not only cycle paths, but also crossing the Alps or lighter singletrail, the Thorr models with Bafang motors focus on universality and availability.

Our best hardtail. Agile, aggressive, lightweight MTB machine with minimal energy loss, carbon frame, telescopic seatpost and improved XC geometry with extended reach.

In the 2023 season, children's bikes were also expanded. This year, the category for young bikers has grown with the Rocket model line. It offers three product lines with different equipment and the option of choosing between 20" and 24" wheels. It can thus satisfy a wide range of young cyclists - from those who just want to have fun to small racers with big ambitions.

The brand new Root model range is a treat for all lovers of simplicity and efficiency. It is inspired by the roots of mountain biking – minimalist design, durable aluminum frame, aggressive geometry, easy maintenance. A simple and efficient machine for the trail or bike park.

Tarpan is back! However, don't expect any connection to the original model other than the name of a European breed of wild horses. For 2023, it has new frames from the ground up, in two variants. The first of them bears the nickname AM and is an uncompromising all mountain machine with a stroke of 160/140 mm. The second option is a playful trail bike with a stroke of 130/120 mm, which we characteristically labeled TR.

The Duke model line has dominated the XC MTB category here for years. This year will be no different. In addition to the now classic all-carbon Duke hardtails, a new family of full-suspension MTBs – the Duke FS – will be added.

The family of our e-bikes has undergone a significant transformation and will be presented in a new composition in the 2023 season. In addition to the well-known and popular model series Thorr Evo and Thorr, a brand new, full-suspension e-trailbike Stormer FS has been added to their ranks - a chairlift that you can take with you anywhere.
