Testimonials We are very satisfied with our participation. We could achieve all our launch targets, as well as being recognized by the public. However, the most important was the interaction with the public: our bikes were greatly accepted, our designs and color options. I work at a bike shop in Fortaleza, called Barcellos, and this is my first time at the show. I came looking for launches, new partners, distributors and equipment. I am sure that our Customer Service will improve after this experience and knowledge that I gained here. GUILHERME SANTOS CEO at Tropix AROLDO MATOS BARBOSA Visitor / Bike Shop Owner We are very happy to take part in Brasil Cycle Fair. This is our first year, the brand Audax is also new, with only a year and a half. The show is very important because it brings the sector together. The end user, the cyclist, is also very important to us, because they make the brand powerful and have the opportunity to test our bikes, which help them see the quality of our products.
