Ride with TRIGONJan 05, 2026Riding Together Through the Year
From the Racecourse to Your Own Path In 2025, TRIGON and Team CYTO TRIGON shared a journey that was challenging, honest, and deeply meaningful.The European Training & Racing Sharing Event held on December 21 was not merely a retrospective—it became a moment to reconnect with what truly matters. Competitive cycling is not only about results, but about how one confronts oneself along the way. The Essence of Competition Is a Dialogue With Yourself This year, the team entered the high-intensity training camps and race environments of Europe—faster rhythms, greater pressure, and no home-ground advantage.It was not a romantic adventure, but a process that demanded honesty, resilience, and self-awareness. Throughout training and competition, we witnessed athletes face setbacks, recalibrate, and begin again. With every pedal stroke, they learned to take responsibility for their own expectations.At TRIGON, we believe this is the true beauty of competition—not the moment on the podium, but the countless moments of choosing not to look away from yourself. Riding Alongside the Team Clarified Who We Are Walking this road with Team CYTO TRIGON over the past year, TRIGON did more than observe a team’s growth—we gained a clearer understanding of our own role.As riders trained abroad and refined their judgment and rhythm under pressure, we found ourselves asking: what does it truly mean to ride alongside them? The answer is simple.To remain steady when it matters.To stay present when things become difficult.And to keep moving forward together, even when the outcome is not yet visible. A year of riding together has deepened our understanding of what “Riding Together” truly stands for. TRIGON Rides With You In 2025, our focus was on the competitive arena—seeing how cycling shapes a young rider’s growth and decisions.As we look toward 2026, TRIGON hopes to carry this spirit even further. Not only for professional athletes, but for everyone who rides with a dream in mind.Whether on the racecourse or on a long-distance ride, every journey is a conversation with your own rhythm. Cycling has never been just about speed or distance.It is about discipline in life, commitment to your goals, and the ongoing dialogue with yourself. Because we believe—what truly matters is not how far you ride,but how you choose to ride, why you set off,and whether you are willing to ride alongside yourself every step of the way.

Ride with TRIGONDec 07, 2025TRIGON Rides Beside You｜U23 Road Race Champion: Chang You-Cheng – Team CYTO TRIGON
At TRIGON, we believe every rider’s dream deserves someone riding beside them. This year, we were honored to support Chang You-Cheng, who claimed victory in the U23 Individual Road Race at the 2025 National Road Cycling Championships with steady pacing, decisive judgment, and precise adaptation to the course. The race concluded on November 23, with strong performances across Team CYTO TRIGON. The Huatung Course: A Test of Versatility The Huatung route is known for its unpredictability:the long ascent of Yuchang Highway, the shifting crosswinds along the coastline, and high-speed sections that demand instant reaction.It challenges every rider—and reveals whether a bike can deliver power and stability when it matters most. For this race, Team CYTO TRIGON riders selected the AR Series, with the AR01 as their primary machine. AR01｜Balancing Aerodynamics, Stiffness, and Lightweight Efficiency The AR01 integrates aerodynamic shaping, responsive stiffness, and a refined lightweight structure to perform across all race scenarios: Stable pacing over long distances Direct and confident sprint acceleration Clear power transfer on steep climbs Reliable control in strong crosswinds On a route that demands versatility, the AR01 showed its full capability. Rider’s Perspective｜Chang You-Cheng: “The AR01 Let Me Focus on the Race” For You-Cheng, the coastline was the most punishing section: “The wind kept shifting, and my energy was fading. That stretch really tested my will.” Throughout the race, the AR01 provided the confidence he needed.He described his experience: Long climb – Yuchang Highway“Every pedal stroke translated smoothly into speed. The downhill felt stable, which let me stay relaxed even at high pace.” Coastal crosswinds“The aero performance made a clear difference. It saved valuable watts—all of which matter in the second half.” High-speed sections“The acceleration is very direct. When an attack happens, the bike reacts immediately.” His trust in the bike comes down to one simple truth:“What reassures me most is its acceleration. When I press down, the bike moves.” On the Huatung course, the AR01 balanced support on long climbs, stability in the wind, and firm power transfer during accelerations. Race Moments｜Crisis, Pressure, and Breakthrough A scare at the start:“My right shifter suddenly ran out of battery. Fortunately, Yue-Xiu and our mechanic Yi-Qian fixed it immediately—otherwise I couldn’t have finished the race.” A familiar moment of being caught:“With 40 km to go, our breakaway was absorbed by the peloton.It hurt—especially because the same thing happened last year.”He described it as “a familiar kind of pain,” but this time, he held his rhythm, steadied his mindset, and turned the moment into a breakthrough—earning the national title. About Chang You-Cheng｜Finding a New Sense of Direction A member of Team CYTO TRIGON：Chang You-Cheng You-Cheng has been riding for nine years, beginning in junior high.His most uncertain period came when he left his original team in college—until a recommendation from senior rider Hsu Yu-Kai led him to TRIGON FACTORY RACING, the predecessor of today’s Team CYTO TRIGON. There, he found a renewed sense of belonging: “Here, I found the feeling of home. That matters more than any victory.” He sees himself as an all-rounder, with endurance, decision-making, and pacing as his core strengths.This U23 title marks the conclusion of his university chapter. Ahead of him are bigger stages:the Asian Championships, Tour de Okinawa, Tour de Taiwan, Tour of Poyang Lake, and preparation for advancing to the Elite category. TRIGON riding Beside You｜Supporting Growth and Ambition Riding alongside our athletes and community is TRIGON’s pride.We believe no rider should face the road alone.Whether in training, racing, or pursuing personal goals, TRIGON aims to be a steady and reliable force at your side. Congratulations once again to Chang You-Cheng, U23 National Champion.For the road ahead—we ride together. #TRIGONBIKE #ClearPerformance #AccomplishBeyondGoals#AR01 #AeroRoad #RoadRacing #U23RoadRace #NationalChampionship #TaiwanCycling#RideWithTRIGON #PerformanceCrafted#teamCYTOTRIGON #張祐誠 #自由車公路錦標賽

Ride with TRIGONOct 15, 2025TRIGON Brings the Passion of Taiwan to Spain
TRIGON carried the warmth of Taiwan onto Spain’s cycling stage. At Sea Otter Europe Girona, we spent three days connecting face-to-face with local riders— We talked about speed, road feel, and that shared passion that transcends language. The Spanish riders’ pursuit of freedom and precision felt deeply familiar, like the wind from southern Taiwan—warm, sincere, and full of life.Across the test-ride zones and race circuits, TRIGON bikes drew attention not just for their look, but for the conversations they inspired. Riders stopped to share their experiences across different terrains, speaking about rhythm, control, and connection. In those exchanges, we realized that whether in Taiwan or Spain, cyclists aren’t chasing numbers alone—they’re searching for a bike that understands them, that moves in harmony with their intent. That exchange is the language TRIGON has always spoken:To listen through design, to respond through craftsmanship, and to understand through every ride. The sunlight in Girona is bright and gentle, the sea breeze carrying both salt and rhythm. The riding spirit here feels natural and focused—just like what TRIGON strives to express. For us, building a frame isn’t about stacking performance metrics; it’s about creating a bike that moves with your body’s rhythm—precise when you push, effortless when you flow. For a new generation of cyclists, a bike is no longer just a symbol of speed, but an extension of personal style and conviction. TRIGON believes the real performance doesn’t need to shout—it exists in the quiet rhythm of motion, where precision and confidence flow with every pedal stroke and every turn. From Taiwan’s craftsmanship and spirit to Spain’s free-spirited passion, we found resonance across the sea.This ongoing dialogue between cultures and riders defines who we are—TRIGON will continue to craft performance and design into one seamless rhythm, riding forward with cyclists around the world.
