Moekkôkèn's maiden race | ||
Photo above: A.v.d.Lee Photo below: W. SchermerDuring one hour record attempts at Omnisport in Apeldoorn, the brand new carbon bike Moekkôkèn (Dutch dialect for "Want to have one too") was first ridden by builder and rider Bram Moens from M5. Conclusion: The bike is incredibly efficient (read: "fast"), but the propulsion was not working at maximum power output... In itself that's not surprising given the short run-up period. Barely five weeks ago Bram decided to establish a dual purpose: a) The fastest possible bike, based on a two-year old drawing. b) Start training for the first time in five years. Concerning part b: let's plan a second chance during spring 2012. Gives a bit more time for a more extensive training programme.After all Bram is only 55...

Arthur van der Lee allready reached Norways Northcape |
July 11th, 2011 | |
And again an astonishing 30 degrees Celsius | ||
After a last allnighter of about 360 K I find myself safely back at a nice hostel. My intention was to split the last stage of this journey in two but along the way people told me that the weather was going to turn. It has been quite warm here in this northern most part of europe for quite some time now. I reached the Northcape on sunday morning about 9:30 still under a clear blue sky. Shortly after I left I could already feel the cold en not much later it started raining. And it has not been stopped since.... I thank you all for your e-mails and tomorrow I hope to update the website with more pictures of reindeer and midnight sun. Read his experiences on: members.upc.nl/a.vanderlee3/ | ||

June 14th, 2011 | |
Within reasonable time M5 will introduce two new dismountable rear carrier types for M5 Carbon High Racers as well for M5's latest type: the "M"-Racer. The new carrier exists of only 3 different parts which are screwed together. All kind of click system panniers can be attached to this latest type like Ortlieb etc. In the nearby future M5 will also offer carbon topplates for an even lighter rear carrier. Estimated weight will be a stunning less then 260 grammes rear carrier (with alu top plate appr. 360 grammes) Because of this unique patent pending construction we can ship these rear carriers in a flat envelope! | ||
New serie of M5 Carbon High Racers available |
May 13th, 2011 | |
The previous months there was some `congestion` regarding the delivery for this most efficient bike. But right now we can again deliver out of stock. Besides the standard natural 12 D carbon version we have a limited number of these CHR´s in magnificient Ice Blue or Fire Red. Within days we will also publish the reports of some M5 CHR customers who are riding their certificates with incredible high average speeds thanks to these high-tech vehicles: 250 Watt gives an astonishing 48 km/h or 30 miles p/h! | ||
Quality control of titanium monoforks from Titanium Shock Proof |
May 10th, 2011 | |
Shock Proof titanium monoforks have been used in bikes between 2001 and 2007. With one titanium monofork play has been revealed between the steerer tube and the fork crown. Since this current owner is not the first owner history and mileage of this fork is unknown. On the longer term this play can lead to fatigue of the steerer tube. M5 asks users of these titanium monoforks to send their fork for a quality check to M5 Recumbents (from May the 18th) If, after research, there is a need for replacement, another fork will be returned to the current owner. |
