Values

Mission statement

Our values and products

Tradition means trust - and that involves obligations. We attach huge importance to reliability, down-to-earth qualities and distinctive employee orientation, dealing with colleagues and our business partners in a cooperative manner. We monitor markets carefully to develop solutions and to set trends. The results are high-end and modern products, which combine function, design and durability.

Ecology & environment

It is very important to us to bear responsibility for the generations of today and tomorrow. We combine ecology, social responsibility and economy by becoming engaged in environmental projects, ensuring that we are fair when dealing with fellow human beings, handling resources responsibly and orienting our company management towards ecological aspects. We are committed and challenged to act in such a way, because we manufacture products for the most environmentally friendly and accessible means of transport: the bicycle.

What we offer our partners

The customer is at the heart of our activities. Financial independence and technical know-how are important prerequisites for the development of innovative products, which offer our customers real added value and strong partnership along the entire value chain. We want to grow and to promote cooperation in order to continue satisfying our customers’ requirements in future and to remain a reliable partner.
