Who or what is Ambit Components?

Ambit Components is a German brand for mountain bike components and bicycles based in Oberammergau, Bavaria. The brand was founded in 2023 by Michael Müllmann and initially launched with pedals and stems "Made in Bavaria".

What does the Ambit brand stand for?

Ambit stands for innovation, real added value for riders, and the principle of developing components not just for, but with riders. They follow the "Design Thinking" approach and place the highest value on quality and functionality to enable the " ultimate riding experience". The Oberammergau location is strategically used to extensively test products under real conditions.

What makes Ambit Components products special?

The specialty lies in the innovative approach and close collaboration with team riders throughout the entire development process. Products are only brought to series production after extensive testing – both in the field and by athletes. Examples of genuine innovations include:

• Pedals: Feature a patented rotation brake that allows the rotation movement to be continuously adjusted, offering extra safety during jumps and on trails.
• Rims: Have a particularly wide rim flange, which has shown a reduction in snakebites of up to 50% in tests.

Ambit started with pedals and stems. The portfolio has since expanded to include rims, wheels, chainguides, top caps, and handlebars. The focus is on high-quality components for mountain bikes, especially for the Enduro and Slopestyle disciplines.

The products are aimed at demanding mountain bikers, particularly in the Enduro and Slopestyle sectors, who value innovative features, high quality, and components developed in Germany. Practical suitability is underscored by successes in competition.
