Bernds Bikes Manufaktur

“You always feel like you’re in the right gear. No matter how you shift,” says Thomas Bernds about the Rohloff hub system.
He loves its symmetric shifting geometry, workmanship, and great efficiency. “The best choice for any purpose, unless you want an extremely light bike. But be forewarned: choose Rohloff once, and you’ll choose it forever.” Produced in Fuldatal near Kassel, Germany.

Metres of development: 1.68–8.85 m
Available with thumb or grip shifter

The gear system for solid everyday riding and for everyone who’s used to riding with a coaster brake. The range of transmission ratios here gives you enough leeway to handle any situation while avoiding unnecessary complexity.

Made in Germany – thanks to which we’ve always enjoyed fast and reliable service.

An all-weather option for everyday riders.

The deluxe trekking and touring saddle by SQlab.

The SQlab step saddle design’s lower nose means less pressure in those sensitive places. And its firm padding avoids excessive friction by preventing you from sinking in too deep. The SQlab 602 is suitable for medium-to-long distances. And thanks to SQlab’s active saddle technology, the saddle follows your pedalling motion – making for more comfort, less strain on your spinal discs, and less pressure on your sit bones.

SQlab’s top model for an erect riding posture on city bikes.

Firm, high-quality padding combines with the proven SQlab step saddle design for a high level of comfort on long and short trips. Its “active system” with two settings increases comfort and spares your spinal discs in the lumbar region while also reducing pressure on your sit bones.

For those who ride a lot – because the Brooks leather saddle lasts virtually forever and eventually adapts to the shape of your body. By the way: if you put it in the oven or in the sun for a couple minutes prior to riding, it will adapt even faster. But if your bike spends extended periods in the rain, you’ll need to cover your leather saddle in order for it to truly last long.

Available in multiple colours
Women’s and men’s versions

For that typical roadster feeling. Toulouse handlebars permit an even more upright riding position, with no need to lean forward and hardly any strain at all on your wrists.

For athletic riding. These mountain bike handlebars are nearly straight, putting your body in a more forward and slightly more extended seating position.

This means less air resistance. And since the handlebars are so straight, they lie flat on the bike when it’s folded – making for an even smaller folded form.

You can install any set of handlebars on a Bernds without interfering with foldability. This makes them unique among folding bikes, the fact that we’re admittedly proud of.

Any handlebars can be mounted.
Position memory function and folding procedure remain unaffected.
Prices upon request

Beyond being stylish, our leather groups are also a good ergonomic fit: their shape provides perfect wrist support. Ideal for all serious riders.

Optimum distribution of pressure
Last virtually forever
Elegantly finished

For frequent riders – because there’s no faster way to reduce the width of your folded size. A choice that pays off for everyone who folds often – like those who commute daily by bus or train.

For occasional folders who want a maximally compact folded form. These aluminium quick-release pedals can be removed in a snap thanks to a click on/click off mechanism, but they still use high-quality ball bearings.

Manufactured by MKS, “the Rolls-Royce among pedal producers”, says Thomas.

Two years of developement, every detail from grip to shoe has been overthought. Look simple, but also convince with their inner attributes: high-quality bearings.

A perfect choice, also for frequent riders.

”Only in Berlin, or in the Sahara“, because you will only need them if you have to expect glas shrugs or thorn bushes.

extra-safe 3mm GreenGuard Safetyguard

Optically slightly lighter, offering the great riding attributes of Schwalbe at the same time. Suitable up to 80kg body weight.

Lightweight construction, modern tread design, and enormous traction make for unforgettable riding fun and long tyre life.

“For a light, fast bike and an especially great look: the 451 rim has the same external diameter as the 55 mm Big Apple, so it fits really well into our frames,” says an enthusiastic Thomas.

The Shimano hub dynamo we use is reliable and more convenient than a sidewall dynamo. The coil and axle structure is made of aluminium for greatly reduced weight of approx. 550 g.

We combine every dynamo with the high-quality B&M IQ XS with 70 lux, close-range illumination, and automatic parking light function.

“The best there is,” says Thomas. Schmidt’s Original Hub Dynamo is developed and produced in Germany. What’s special about it is its interior ventilation, which protects the dynamo from moisture and allows the SON to last more or less forever. The best choice for anyone’s needs.

We combine every dynamo with the high-quality B&M IQ XS with 70 lux, close-range illumination, and automatic parking light function.

The lights on an E-Bernds can, of course, be run off of the bike’s rechargeable battery. In this case, we install our usual high-quality cables that keep working even after 100,000 folds.
