They wanted a 3D model of celebrity cyclist, Chris Froome. Froome is a four-time winner of the Tour de France and the reigning champion of that race. He also holds the crown of the Vuelta a España race as well.

The manufacturer knew Dekom 3D Plus had the Massivit 1800 wide format 3D printer. So Dekom got the call.
