Dominik Raab
Dominik Raab is a professional street trials and mountain biker. Born 1985 in Linz/Austria, Raab found his passion for the sport of mountain biking around 1997. In 2003 he won the Austrian State Champion title in the discipline of trials biking. Today, the Upper Austrian is one of the best and most popular trials bikers in the world. Touring the globe under the flag of bicycle manufacturer “Merida Bikes” Dominik Raab keeps the crowd entertained performing his one-of-a-kind feats, doing trials demos, photo and video shootings. With the “Dominik Raab Mountain Bike Trials Show” the cyclist is an entertainer on two wheels at over 100 days a year to show off his skills in the context of sporting events, product launches or corporate events.
