The Huberbuam's thirst for adventure: from climbing to e-bikes
The Huberbuam, known for their daring climbing tours, have developed a unique e-bike with corratec that is revolutionizing the world of mountaineering.
The Huberbuam: Icons of Extreme Climbing
The Huberbuam, brothers Alexander and Thomas Huber, are among the most renowned extreme climbers in the world. As pioneers of free climbing, they have set milestones in alpine mountaineering and are recognized as true icons in the climbing community.
With impressive first ascents, daring speed records, and spectacular climbing adventures from Patagonia to the Dolomites to El Capitan in Yosemite National Park, the Huberbuam have made a name for themselves—not only through their extraordinary physical achievements but also through their deep connection to nature and the mountains.
Von der Skepsis zur Begeisterung: Die ersten Schritte mit dem E-Bike
Anfangs standen die Huberbuam dem E-Bike sehr skeptisch gegenüber. Als puristische Kletterer lehnten sie unterstützende Technik ab. Doch schnell stellten sie fest, dass das E-Bike ihnen ermöglicht, Energie zu sparen und diese beim Klettern einzusetzen.
Durch das E-Bike erweiterten sie ihren Radius und erkannten, dass es für schweres Klettern und Bergsteigen eigentlich unverzichtbar ist. Selbst für Flachländer ist es schwer nachzuvollziehen, dass auch topfitte Bergsteiger von der Unterstützung eines E-Bikes profitieren können.
The meeting with corratec: a partnership is born
The first meeting with Konrad Irlbacher, the founder and CEO of corratec, took place by chance. However, this acquaintance quickly developed into a friendship. The Huberbuam were enthusiastic about the corratec bikes and a close cooperation developed.
The Huberbuam are now part of the corratec family and together they have developed an e-bike that perfectly meets their needs as mountaineers and adventurers.
