Marathon-Fully: Silverback SBC
With the SBC, the Silverback brand is putting an absolutely competitive marathon fully with an exceptional frame design on the fast tyres.

The brand with South African roots and a company headquarters in Nürtingen near Stuttgart is only known to die-hard bikers. Silverback has been around since 2004 and its model range is particularly strong in the cross-country and marathon sector, with the SBC as its flagship model. For 6199 euros, Silverback is sending a purist race bike weighing just 10.3 kilos with absolutely competitive equipment into the race.

The test costs 0.99 euros. Why not free of charge? Because quality journalism has a price. In return, we guarantee independence and objectivity. This applies in particular to the tests in BIKE. We don't pay for them, but the opposite is the case: we charge for them, hundreds of thousands of euros every year.
