How's the change from Meybo to GT treating you?
Luis: At first I wasn't really sure because I really liked the Meybo and I was really happy about the support in the last couple of years. But with the team moving on to GT we now got new opportunities. I really loved the GT bike from the first time I was riding it! It feels a lot different but it feels amazing. I am definitely looking forward to an amazing future and a good year 2013.

How long did it take you to get used to your new bike?
Luis: It felt perfect in the first lap.

What part of the bike do you like the most?
Luis: There's no special part. I like the complete bike and how it works all together.

What’s the trickest/coolest part of your bike?
Luis: Hahaha my bike is pretty standard. Nothing special to tell you guys... Well maybe the little secrets... but I can't tell you, it wouldn't be a secret anymore ;)

Do you ever change gears any longer?
Luis: We often change gears for practice. It's good to get some different stimulations.
But for most races I'm on the same race gear

What part do you replace most often during the season?
Luis: The Chain
