What does the Eclat brand stand for?
Eclat stands for precision, progression, and purpose. Their goal is to create BMX components that not only push boundaries in design and durability but also reflect the raw spirit of street riding around the world. They follow the philosophy: "Designed in Cologne. Ridden Everywhere." – avoiding gimmicks or trends, focusing instead on timeless, functional design.
What makes Eclat products special?
The specialty lies in the belief that the best products come from real-world experience. Eclat works closely with their global team – consisting of innovators and street technicians ("innovators, mad men, and street technicians") – who help shape and test every part under the toughest conditions. Every Eclat product is built to meet the demands of modern riding, day in and day out.
