DARE Bikes (Taiwan) - Press Release: Since entering the Philippine market, DARE has seen a great deal of support and attention from local media and cyclists, and in celebration we hosted paint design contest “DARE to Be Different” through our DARE ambassador and Filipino cycling influencer Angelo Bikerdude. Congratulations to Mark Bagz for creating the winning MR1s design, “Passion”!

“Passion” paints a collection of athletic icons on top of a fiery red background to portray an energetic enthusiasm for sport. The rest of the frame is covered with a unique beige to black gradient, elegant and spirited at the same time, illustrating a refined passion for cycling.

MR1s is DARE’s classic rim brake model, as despite the popularity of disc brakes, some still prefer the compact and light feeling of rim brake calipers. Not only are rim brakes easier to maintain and fix on your own, cost of repair is lower as well, making them a great choice for those just getting into cycling. The MR1s frame also boasts race-worthy stiffness and weighs only 810 grams, so even paired with a Shimano Ultegra groupset the bike will still come in under 7 kilograms, no need to make compromises.
