Ducati DesertX Rally sprint filter

The Ducati DesertX Rally of the CDP Ducati-Entrophy Motorbike Team equipped with the revolutionary Sprint Filter T12 air filter, has once again demonstrated its prowess at the Erzbergrodeo, securing another victory in the twin-cylinder category during the Iron Road Prologue.

Antoine Meo, 5 times Enduro World Champion and European Supercross Champion, led the DesertX to victory for the second consecutive year in the Iron Road Prologue. This event is notorious for its challenging ascent — over 600 meters in altitude over a 13.5 km stretch — and attracts over 1,300 riders who must qualify here for the final round of the “Rodeo.” Meo’s stellar performance not only highlights his exceptional skill but also the DesertX Rally’s robust engineering and the incredible capabilities provided by the Sprint Filter T12 air filter.

The Sprint Filter T12, the only long-life, dry air filter designed for off-road use, played a crucial role in protecting the Ducati engine from the harsh and dusty conditions of the Erzbergrodeo. Its superior filtration technology ensures optimal airflow and engine protection, crucial for maintaining high performance throughout the race. This filter’s minimal maintenance requirements also mean that racers like Meo can focus more on the competition and less on equipment upkeep.

The DesertX Rally’s front-row start in the final event was a direct result of the sprint performance in the Iron Road Prologue. Although Meo retired early due to the demanding nature of the route for twin-cylinder bikes, the performance on the Iron Road still showcased the DesertX Rally’s competitive edge and the Ducati engine’s power, amplified by strategic modifications like the Ducati Performance racing exhaust, the Sprint Filter T12 air filter and a lighter front brake setup.

As Sprint Filter continues to support champions like Antoine Meo and events as grueling as the Erzbergrodeo, we remain committed to delivering cutting-edge solutions that meet the needs of the most demanding riders and conditions. The Sprint Filter T12 is not just a component; it’s a game-changer for off-road racing, ensuring that our partners like CDP Ducati-Entrophy Motorbike Team can continue to lead the pack and cross the finish line, no matter how tough the terrain.
