With the price of fuel at an all-time high, and people seeking alternative means of transportation, Audi showcased its Audi Cross Pro RS in Bangladesh.
Audi produced a total of only 150 units of the Audi Cross Pro RS in 2009, making this bicycle very exclusive.
Although Audi didn't make all the parts themselves, they did source a very impressive combination.
The frame itself was Aluminum designed by Audi Sport GmbH, formerly known as Quattro GmbH, with the rims made of Aluminum l with a futuristic design.
It has the 27-speed Shimano XTR and XT gear derailleurs and gear shifters. The crankset is also from Shimano, it's called XT Hollowtech II, the bottom bracket is integrated with the crank, reducing the overall weight, then again increasing the strength, the brakes as well are from Shimano, they are 2-piston Shimano Deore XT calipers with carbon pads.
Audi used Rockshox SID XC in the rear suspension and an MRD 80mm fork in the front.
Because of the Aluminum frame and rims, they were able to achieve 12.5kg back in the day.
Only one unit is currently available in Bangladesh.
