Extralite began its journey with the development of ultra-light quick release skewers, which were considered the lightest in the world at the time. This early success laid the foundation for the company's philosophy: uncompromising weight optimization while ensuring the highest quality and functionality. Over the years, Extralite has steadily expanded its product portfolio, always focusing on innovation and precision manufacturing.

Extralite's product range includes a wide selection of ultra-light components: Hubs such as the HyperHubs are among the lightest hubs on the market and are a prime example of Extralite's engineering prowess. Cranks, stems and handlebars as well as seatposts are highlights in terms of weight optimization, just like the chainrings, they impress with their durability despite their minimal weight.

Many factors set Extralite apart from its competitors: Extremely lightweight: Extralite is known for developing products that are often among the lightest in their category. Innovative materials: The company uses high-quality materials such as titanium, high-strength aluminum alloys and carbon to reduce weight without compromising stability.
