All about bicycles, electric-assisted bikes, technology and safety in the press

In our daily work as we deal with bicycle safety, technology and user manuals we come across lots of safety risks. The most frequent ones are published in articles of the leading German special-interest magazines TOUR – Europas Rennrad-Magazin Nr. 1, BIKE – Das Mountainbike Magazin Europas Nr. 1 and E-Bike – Das Pedelec-Magazin to make this information important for the sector accessible to a wider public.

For many years now the Eurobike Show Daily accompanying the annual international Eurobike Show has given us the opportunity to publish our perspective on major developments in the cycle industry in full-page articles.

We also speak regularly in independent lectures about all topics relating to bicycle technology and bicycle market. In addition, we are regularly cited by further special-interest magazines or trade journals as well as more and more by radio and television and in their media reports, which shows us that we are completely right with our information. The section NEWS informs you about the latest news from our specialist fields. The reports and publications of this section are listed chronologically or according to topics of interest.

Dirk Zedler founds Gesellschaft der Fahrrad-Sachverständigen mbH

Restructuring of the Zedler-Group

Constant growth since 1993 with meanwhile more than 800 expert reports per year and an increasing number of staff members: With the foundation of GDFS (Gesellschaft der Fahrrad-Sachverständigen mbH) Dirk Zedler aims at adapting the company to the actual business realities.

The only things that will change, however, are the company’s legal form and the name. Other things like laboratory and office equipment, access to the archives which according to expert opinion is one of the most extensive ones as well as the renown form of expert reports remain unchanged. Dirk Zedler is still part of the operative business, as before. In his position as managing director his year-long experience will be fully at the experts’ disposal.

The Zedler-Group (www.zedler.de) thus comprises the companies Gesellschaft der Fahrrad-Sachverständigen mbH (GDFS) and Zedler – Institut für Fahrradtechnik und -Sicherheit GmbH dealing with the preparation of user manuals for all types of bicycles and bicycle components as well as with the business area development and production of testing systems for the measurement of riding characteristics, for the determination of the impact and overload behaviour and for fatigue tests of bicycle frames and components.
