bikes
Hey visitors of The Motion Brand,
This is where Lukas Knopf writes.
Because I always get a lot of questions about the bikes I ride via email and other platforms. I thought of integrating a page on the website where all the bikes and bike parts that I ride are listed.
I hope that the selection helps you if you are looking for your perfect dirt jump, downhill, freeride or enduro bike.
My sponsor has been Rose Bikes for more than 7 years and that's why you will only find bikes from Rose. In addition, many attachments are from other sponsors. But I can proudly say that I only drive for partners that I stand behind 100%.
My dirt jump bike:
The Rose The Bruce has been my choice for over 7 years now. I learned a lot of my tricks on it and competed in countless international competitions.
You can find my bike under this link, the 2 version:http://tidd.ly/5c2079ea
the 1er is also available here:http://tidd.ly/5c2079ea
(Tip: if you are a beginner, the 1-bike will do just fine BUT I trust the 2-bike as the Rock Shox Pike is simply my favorite dirt jump fork and has been for years)
Now follows a list of parts that I use on my bike (e.g. Continental RaceKing tires or the golden KMC chain), which are not installed on the complete Rose bike, but which you can easily retrofit:
- Suspension fork (if you have the 1er and want to retrofit it):https://tidd.ly/3E49kuh (Pike)

My downhill bike:
The Rose Soulfire is my weapon for downhill tracks or for freeride events like Audi Nines! For now (I think) 5 years. Hammer bike, with a geo for tricks, riding downhill or for urban sends.
You can find the bike at this link:https://tidd.ly/3FqsFpx
The following is a list of parts that I use on my DH (e.g. Continental Kaiser/Baron tires), which are not installed on the complete Rose bike, but which you can easily retrofit:
- Continental Baron tires (contrary to the picture, change often between Kaiser and Baron, both top!): https://tidd.ly/34K4Yfj

My enduro bike:
The Root Miller from Rose Bikes is my choice for enduro riding. Uphill and later down the trail: bomb! Yes, I also built one more freeride-oriented, you can also find the barspin cap in the links below. :)
You can find the bike at this link:https://tidd.ly/3tnQ4Wt
Cheaper versions of the bike:https://tidd.ly/3KewKRi andhttps://tidd.ly/3I4lFQX
Now follows a list of parts that I use on my enduro (e.g. Continental Baron tires or the golden KMC chain), which are not installed on the complete Rose bike, but which you can easily retrofit:

As announced, here is the link to make your enduro or freeride bike 'barspin capable':https://bit.ly/3fqpp2U
Another enduro bike:
The Ground Control is also a great bike, but to be honest I have to say that the Root Miller is my personal favourite. Nevertheless, the bike is a lot of fun! :)
Here's the ground control:https://tidd.ly/3rlHa9l
and here you will find a lot of cheaper versions of the bike:http://tidd.ly/40c84128
The attachments on the Ground Control are exactly the same as on the Root Miller, so just check the parts list there again. :)
My freeride bike:
For freeride use, I have the Soulfire as an FR setup.
Here's the Soulfire FR:https://tidd.ly/3rcFUoS
and here you will find a lot of cheaper versions of the bike:https://tidd.ly/3GAFGP2
The attachments on the Soulfire FR are also exactly the same as on my Soulfire DH bike, so just check the parts list there again. :)
The ahead cap to 'barspin' the bike:https://bit.ly/3fqpp2U
My gravel bike:
Last but not least: nobody would have thought of it, but I love to go gravelling. Just 1-2 hours through the forest, over hill and dale or a bit along the road and reach completely different speeds than with the Enduro. The Rose Bikes Backroad really gets you going! So if you've always been looking for such an alternative, whether just to shred or to use it for training, there you go:https://tidd.ly/3K7d4z3
I ride the bike from the link above (i.e. the carbon version), but here is a cheaper AL alternative for you:https://tidd.ly/3zYbHxO
That was it. There are no more bikes. Yes, the Rose (The Jester) slopestyle bike, and the Pikes Peak, but sadly both are no longer available.
I hope I was able to help some with this and you found what you were looking for.
I also recorded bike build videos for all the bikes. Just check out the links below:
