Effetto Mariposa

Effetto Mariposa is a Swiss-based cycling brand renowned for its precision-engineered tools and eco-conscious accessories, designed to meet the demands of both professional mechanics and dedicated riders. Established in 2007 by materials engineer and cycling enthusiast Alberto De Gioannini, the company has consistently introduced innovative solutions that address real-world cycling challenges.

Innovation Rooted in Necessity

Effetto Mariposa's product development is driven by practical needs. Their inaugural product, the Giustaforza torque wrench, set a new standard in bike maintenance by offering a tool specifically calibrated for cycling components. Following this, the Caffélatex sealant was introduced as the first ammonia-free, foaming tubeless sealant, providing effective puncture protection without compromising on safety or performance.

Comprehensive Product Range

The brand offers a diverse array of cycling products, including:

• Tubeless Solutions: Sealants, conversion kits, and puncture protection tools.

• Tubular Accessories: Innovative gluing tapes and related products.

• Cleaning & Lubrication: Eco-friendly cleaners and lubricants like the Flowerpower Wax, made from sunflower seed wax.

• Workshop Tools: Precision instruments such as torque wrenches and carbon-specific hacksaws.

• Frame Protection: Visco-elastic protective films under the Shelter line

Commitment to Sustainability

Effetto Mariposa places a strong emphasis on environmental responsibility. Products like the Végétalex sealant, which utilizes finely ground olive stones, and the Flowerpower Wax lubricant, derived from sunflower seed wax, exemplify their dedication to sustainable innovation.
