The best products prove themselves under the toughest conditions—elite racing, extreme weather, and unforgiving muddy terrain.
On the final day of the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup in Yongpyong, South Korea, the highlight event—the XCO final—pushed both riders and equipment to the limit. Mechanical issues were seen across the field due to the heavy mud, but not once did it affect the KMC Nukeproof MTB Racing Team.
Equipped with KMC’s latest waxed chain and the whole new chainring, riders consistently reported higher drivetrain efficiency, reduced noise, and—most importantly—reliable performance even in the harshest muddy conditions.
Congratulations to all KMC Nukeproof MTB Racing Team riders for finishing strong despite the extreme conditions, successfully completing the opening round of the World Cup.
