THE STORY OF CARBONIN IS
THE STORY OF A PASSIONATE BIKE RACER
What do you do when you can’t find parts for racing motorcycles that suit your needs?
Simple: You make them yourself.
Well, it’s not THAT simple. Reading the story of Carbonin and its CEO, Peter Kuduz, will help you understand how and why we stand behind the quality of our carbon and avio fiber motorcycle parts.
Here’s Peter’s story:
Peter Kuduz, CEO of Karbonin d.o.o.
“Racing is not just passion. It’s precision.”
Addicted to speed, committed to perfection
"I was a passionate motorcycle racer, addicted to speed, and committed to perfection, just like you might be. But back then, at the end of the second millennium, there was a lack of quality parts for the race bike I was maintaining by myself."
Racing is not just passion, it’s precision
"The parts were too heavy, or they didn’t fit perfectly – and they broke into pieces after a crash. No one likes to fall – but that’s just as much a part of racing as is being a winner. You can’t discover the limits of your bike and yourself if you don’t take it to the edge."
From Need to Innovation
"I dreamt of lighter, stronger, and perfectly designed fitted parts that could be mounted on the bike directly out of the box, right there on the racetrack, after a crash. Because I couldn’t find parts like that on the market, I started experimenting in my garage and producing them myself."
From Passion to Demand
“Back then, in 1999, I was only focusing on my second biggest love, the Honda CBR600RR, but after some of my racing buddies saw my work, the demand was on. After testing the parts on the track and improving the production process each time, the parts became good. In fact, they were incredible for that time. I wanted to eliminate all the tedious work – drilling holes, fitting the right bolts, cutting parts, and bending original brackets just to make the components fit. Riders and mechanics were impressed by the simple and immediate installation. They appreciated that the products fit perfectly and that they could receive them already pre-designed with graphics or ready for use. Installing new racing fairings has become as simple as installing an app on a smartphone. They also often retained their original shape after a crash or a slide. Not always, that’s true, but reinforcing the carbon with a touch of Kevlar made a real difference. And the parts fit perfectly!
THE CARBONIN BRAND WAS SOON RECOGNIZED BY PROFESSIONAL RACING TEAMS ALL AROUND EUROPE, AND OUR PRODUCTS ARE NOW PRESENT IN MORE THAN 50 COUNTRIES ACROSS THE GLOBE. FIM WORLD SUPERBIKE, WORLD ENDURANCE, SUPERSPORT 300, 600 AND 1000 SUPERSTOCK, AMA MOTOAMERICA, PLUS VARIOUS NATIONAL AND REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS… YOU NAME IT. AND MORE TO COME.
"Our team always competes! Making sure our Carbonin avio and carbon fiber parts stay in the lead in the motorcycle world and across other advanced industries, where top quality, lightness, a perfect fit, and a premium look are required, is a race in itself.
It’s YOU, dear racer, who benefits from the whole story. YOUR bike craves Carbonin parts. Carbonin – it fits – your bike and your needs.
At the same time, we invite companies and partners from other industries to connect with us if you are looking for advanced composite solutions or developing projects involving carbon and avio fiber.
