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.

Excellent selection

Besides in-house training headhunting resources from the specialist trade is an absolutely common form of attracting staff from manufacturers and service providers. This will certainly continue because experts in the trade offer unique advantages.

SAZbike asks
Industrial companies increasingly recruit good staff from the specialist trade. Is this fair in your opinion? Where do you find qualified staff?

Dirk Zedler - Zedler-lnstitut für Fahrradtechnik und -Sicherheit
We are not directly concerned. But staff is also an issue in our company. We cooperate with universities, offer trainings and try to be an attractive employer. However, with the automotive industry in our surroundings with a very high wage level, it is not easy.

Conclusion:
Manufacturers acknowledge the problem, but do not regard it as a question of fairness, but of normality usual in a market economy. Several suppliers see the causes for that on the side of the specialist trade.
