In 2021, the lights were about to go out at bicycle manufacturer Moeve. Now the Thuringian company is advertising an innovation for the coming year.

In order to protect manufacturers of bicycles, e-bikes, e-MTBs and e-transportation bikes from market and trade supervisory procedures and imminent sales bans, Zedler-Institut für Fahrradtechnik und -Sicherheit GmbH is once again holding their tried and tested (basic) workshop this autumn. The dates for the “Product safety, product liability and CE marking” workshops, which will take place at Zedler's headquarters in Ludwigsburg, have already been set for October 29th and December 17th, 2024.

At the beginning of the year, Netherland’s surveillance authorities ordered a recall of Babboe cargo bikes. Now, the consumer protectors examine further well-known manufacturers. What’s going on there?

“Life Cycle - The Bicycle's Product Life Cycle”, this is the topic of the workshop organised by the Bicycle Safety Working Group of the German Association for Materials Research and Testing (DVM e.V.) on December 3rd and 4th.

Frame breakages of further manufacturers are shaking up the cargo bike industry. The surveillance authority in the Netherlands is alarmed. These bikes are also available on the market in Germany. Meanwhile, an independent Babboe test report reveals shocking facts.
