NEOTECH

About

From one workshop in Daegu to dealers on four continents

Neotech started in 2006 building suspension for the Korean market. Twenty years on, the same company holds tuning parts certification, runs its own proving ground, and ships to dealers from Sydney to Los Angeles. This is how it happened.
