MODERNIZATION
Lenzerheide Bergbahnen AG and Garaventa have
converted the Weisshorn Speed chairlift in the Lenzerheide
Bike Kingdom in Switzerland from winteronly
operation to year-round use. Originally built in
1999, the chairlift now has a new control system, 76
new chairs with bubbles plus 38 new bike carriers.
This means that riders can get to their trails with even
greater speed and comfort.
The bike carriers are fitted with bike clips. Handling
is entirely straightforward. Riders attach their bikes
themselves and then follow their bikes on the next
chair. The reduced transit speed in the bottom station
and the practical bike clips make attaching the
bikes particularly convenient. In the top station, the
bikes are retrieved with a simple hand movement. In
Lenzerheide, four bikes can be transported per bike
carrier.
