A VISIT TO DIRK ZEDLER
Another objective for the VSF is to be of assistance for the networking of the different industry participants and to cultivate creative thinking.
With this in mind the VSF recently organized a visit to the Zedler institute exclusively for VSF members and supporting members. "This visit was not only for the bicycle manufacturers very interesting, for the component manufacturers the insights into the test institute were very instructive, as well", says Uwe Woell, product manager of VSF.

Along with numerous expert presentations the participants got an overall insight into the work of the Zedler institute.
