Spot us in the latest issue of FAZ Quarterly? 👀 Back in 2023, we were delighted to host Niklas Maak from the Frankfurter Allgemeine Quarterly at our Munich studio. FAZ Quarterly has its eyes set on the future, with thought-provoking articles exploring everything from fashion to design to politics. In issue 3/2024, Niklas’ three-page spread covers the philosophy behind the Husqvarna Skutta and how we’ve endeavoured to create an e-scooter which doesn’t succumb to the common e-mobility failings. Namely: long-term durability, on-the-go battery replacement, and ultra-stable rideability.

And that's a wrap on EUROBIKE Show 2024! But what did KISKA get up to? 🤔 Our bicycle team connected with enthusiasts from all around the globe, checking out new products and trends. We explored the halls, stopping by @tarranbikes to check out the T1 Pro release. At our booth, we unveiled the KISKA High Pivot concept bike, equipped with the new GUSTAV Pro brakes from MAGURA. And the feedback was phenomenal! Check out our callout in the EUROBIKE impressions from Pinkbike: https://lnkd.in/d6p7XW5y A huge thank you to everyone who got involved.

It’s a crush! With the USWE gravel collection video, we were all about speaking straight to our kind of riders. The ones who live for the weekend. The ones who can’t stop thinking about the next big ride. We spring boarded off USWE’s ‘kick-ass’ attitude to create a video with a good dose of humour. Capturing that feeling when you can’t stop daydreaming about the weekend, it features two bikepackers as the main characters with a fun twist ending. We showcased USWE’s cycling backpacks, gravel apparel collection, and new bikepacking bags front and centre. From storyboarding to filming to editing, every element was geared towards connecting with USWE’s target audience.

Vibrant. Forward-thinking. And creatively positioned to stand out from the crowd. HEPHA is an excellent example of how a rebrand can propel a rising star into the market. Did you know? The name ‘HEPHA’ comes from the Greek god of fire and industry, Hephaestus! We combined the flame, wheel, and bicycle fork in one logo to represent the passion and movement of a brand which promotes skill and craftsmanship. Just like the Greek god himself.

Introducing the TARRAN T1 Pro: an intelligent, family-focused e-Cargo bike. Debuted at EUROBIKE Show 2024, the T1 Pro is TARRAN's first venture into the bicycle world, designed to address common cargo bike challenges with a blend of intuitive usage and next-gen smart solutions. Developed by an international team, the T1 Pro features touchscreens, AI security systems, a dedicated OS system, and embedded cameras for real-time alerts. Our favourite feature? The proprietary landing gear that automatically deploys to stabilise the bike during stops and starts. TARRAN shares our ‘shake up the rulebook’ attitude and combines this daring nature with a love for family life. As a result, the T1 Pro is easy-to-use, packed with clever innovations, and endeavours to solve any modern challenge. Find TARRAN in Hall 8.0 A08 and OPEN AIR F11 C04 at EUROBIKE 2024.

Reveal time! Our EUROBIKE Show visitors are the first to spot our latest KISKA lab creation: a 3D-printed, 1:1 scale prototype high pivot bike 🚵 With this project, we mixed our deep two-wheel expertise with the race-winning high pivot layout to see what magic we could create. Our result? A high concept, carefully crafted prototype with a semi-integrated shock, tailor-made for bike enthusiasts like us. Plus, we love creating a ‘looks like’ prototype – an ideal show model for design evaluation, layout optimisation, and geometry perfection. Have you got questions for our bike team? Drop them below and we’ll use them in our next TOOLBOX video.
