Who has ever heard this simple expression that sounds true ? The problem is that it isn't enough just to prove it! Each one of us has a special role to play at the end of this revolutionnary century. In its particular field, EGS has started a strong fight to develop the success of it innovations and place its knowledge at the service of the consumer. In its beginning, which was just like an American-style Start-up Company, EGS constantly had to overcome reactionnary, conservative ideals. But its ideas to make the use of cycling easier is starting to make headway. True to this approach, "Shift your mind" is not just a mere advertising slogan. It is a logo which applies to all the manufacturers, distributors, partners who are joining us in this "extraordinary" human, manufacturing and commercial adventure .	The bike market   is a market fired by innovation EGS is convinced that the growth of the bike market - the mountain bike market to be specific - comes first through supply side changes to equipment and accessories that are being used in a variety of ways. The skiing, snowboard and other markets are an illustration of this. EGS's current offer   is based on three straight forward principles : • through its innovations and equipment, to maximize enjoyment, reliability and efficiency of a cycle transmission, be it on a mountain bike, a trekking bike or a city bike. • to offer a complete technical support (information, training, follow-up) with its products • to provide logistics to quicker lead times (standard time : 45 days maximum). To do this, EGS has developed a full range of single shifters, horizontal cage derailleurs and quick-change front and rear hubs unlike anything else available on the market.EGS at last offers a credible, innovative alternative in a market that has become a monopoly.	EGS,   a melting pot culture The company is characterized by its technological and marketing culture that is extremely open and reactive to input from the outside, with a broad mix of people of different backgrounds, languages, training and experience. From the outset, the competition and the extreme bike were used as testing material for both prototypes and industrialized products. The average age of the company subsidiaries included, is 29. There are four sales/marketing areas which cover the markets and meet the requirements of customers, OEM, manufacturers and retailers EGS   has a 5-point philosophy : • offer products that are radically new • offer an advantage that is immediately obvious to the user • produce quality products • offer prices affordable to everyone • simplify the use and maintenance of the bicycle EGS is positioned in the market niche of cycle component manufacturers and assemblers.
