The latest addition to the Van de Zotte line, launched in December 2025, revolves around the Dutch wind, fittingly named Tegenwind (headwind). "Imagine cycling through a flat, open landscape. Meadows on either side. No hills, no trees to hide behind, and yet every pedal stroke feels like climbing a mountain. That's 'tegenwind'." -Van de Zotte.
