Exciting innovations from VELOBerlin 2024

Regardless of whether you were looking for a city bike, racing bike, gravel bike, cargo bike, classic or electric - it seemed like every conceivable vehicle was present at VELOBerlin. Even brands that are usually associated with the automotive sector - such as Opel or Yamaha - were there in the spirit of micromobility.

The bicycles, which go above and beyond the average when it comes to sustainability, are also particularly noteworthy. MyBoo from Kiel and MyEsel from Traun stand out from the crowd because they use frames made of sustainable materials for their bicycles. While myEsel creates high-quality bicycles and e-bikes from wood, the myBoo factory creates unique bikes from bamboo. In addition, every purchase of a myBoo (e-)bike supports a school development project in Ghana.

The bike itself says a lot about your riding style. But the personal style with which you can express your own individuality lies in the colors and accessories you choose.

Farbviereck is a perfect example of the fact that you don't have to stick to standard colors. The Radeberg-based company designs and produces countless different stickers that can be attached to the bike frame, the wheel or even the helmet to give your equipment a classy finishing touch.

The stickers are available in different colors and shapes, with lettering, sometimes reflective and, more recently, with well-known faces from television - such as Benjamin Blümchen or the Mouse.

We spent the VELOBerlin at our stand under the canopy of the Tempelhofer airfield. Also at the stand was the beautiful E-Bike City Classic from Geero , which attracted some interested glances with its timeless design.

There was a lot of interest on both days, which confirmed our feeling that awareness of safety is steadily increasing in Berlin. Many of you told us that you feel uncomfortable in the capital when you don't have lights on, because you are constantly confronted with cars that are used to being the stronger ones. We are happy about each and every one of you who is making Berlin safer with Flasher from now on and setting a good example for other cyclists. The feedback on the app was also exciting: We were delighted with how positively the functions were received and are looking forward to continuing to develop new things like a navigation function for you.

Enjoy the extra space when being overtaken and the certainty that you always have the situation under control, even when turning.

For all of you who weren't able to get your hands on a set at the trade fair: you can now also find your own flasher bracelets at the Radhaus Kreuzberg on Yorckstrasse.
