Carlotta Schumacher: the Transcontinental Race with Ladelux

8. August 2024

Three weeks ago today, Carlotta Schumacher rolled out of our yard to take on the legendary Transcontinental Race No. 10, this time from Roubaix to Istanbul. On board were our newly minted Eurobike Award winners: the SON 29S dynamo and our Ladelux headlight with high beam function!

Last Tuesday, Carlotta arrived healthy at the finish line after 15 days, 8 hours, 35 minutes, and 4,102.8 kilometers ridden, and she even added her personal award as the youngest finisher of the race—what an achievement!!

We can’t wait to hear more about her adventures when she’s back. But of course, we’re also a bit proud to have provided her with a good feeling on the road with our reliable (high) light and charging function.
