E-Bikes for Special People We build bicycles with great cheer and enthusiasm. Our goal is to build and design Pedelecs for you using the best “ingredients� on the market. Our Pedelec recipe, if you will, carefully combines its components so that they are perfectly compatible with one another to ensure true riding pleasure with a healthy touch of physical effort.

Upper Swabian Craftsmanship We love cycling through the changing landscape of Upper Swabia in southern Germany and E-mobility has been our passion for years. We are not a company that jumps on the bandwagon of lifestyle trends that come and go. Flitzbike Pedelecs combine no-frills elegance with a high demand for advanced technology. Attract attention but stay true to yourself – that is our motto. An assertive frame design paired with top quality components puts our E-bikes on par with name brand manufacturers in the premium segment. A minor but finer difference is the origin of our Pedelecs, which are made exclusively in Upper Swabia. When you buy a Flitzbike, you are buying local. But we also believe in tradition: Our E-bikes should look like normal bicycles.

We keep our thinking caps on! Experience in the area of renewable energies and regenerative technologies enable us to look beyond the horizon.
Sustainability

We do more than hook our bicycles up to the power supply. The trend toward solar energy inspired us to also power Flitzbike Pedelecs with energy from the sun. We are aware of our responsibility to ourselves and the next generation and we act on this principle. We walk the talk.

What is a Pedelec? A Pedelec is a bicycle that has a pedal-activated drive system that is only activated when it is being pedaled. An E-bike, on the other hand, is like an electric moped. You can turn the handlebar grip and the vehicle accelerates even if it is not being pedaled. The perfect solution for those a little more resistant to getting up on their bikes. We sell Pedelecs exclusively: Bicycles that are driven by a hybrid mix of electric motor and sheer muscle power. For comfortable riding and more fun on the move!

Intoxication of the Senses Elegant Riding Ambitious ergonomics promises a comfortable and relaxing ride, whether during longer tours or doing errands around town. No matter what you use our Flitzbike Pedelec for - comfort is guaranteed for body and spirit. Riding a Flitzbike is like being in a wellness vacation snap-shot!

Made of tough stuff This bike shines with modest grace and a simple design. Nevertheless, it takes a confident cyclist to tame this Pedelec. The highest quality components, some made of wood, and the sophisticated frame look good on the Wooden Racer. It is equally comfortable for cruising around town or riding out to the beer garden. Its builders designed it mainly with comfort in mind and this is reflected in the ergonomic frame design. We want to make it as comfortable a ride for you as possible, but not tempt you into a comfort zone. Make our Wooden Racer your daily companion. Why drive your car to work when our Wooden Racer is such an elegant form of transport? Enjoy sheer riding comfort!

Pure Dynamics The P18 sports an exciting yet simple aluminum frame. It values places value on its traditional character, yet offers a gentle presence. Built for riding on any terrain, the P18 with its powerful GoSwiss Drive System will take you where you need to go A tough Pinion gearbox makes changing gears almost unnoticeable, which keeps constant trips to the repair shop down to a minimum. Like all Flitzbike Pedelecs, we have also equipped the P18 with the reliable Gates Belt Drive System. This means no bicycle grease on your pants legs and less repair work for us. The balanced positioning of the components permits hard trail riding because of its low center of gravity. Give it a try! Ride the P18 to its limits and you will quickly find that it takes a lot to get there.

Incidentally, the P18 also comes without the E-motor.

Partners Bike grease on your pants leg is a thing of the past – the Gates Belt Drive System knows no dirt. Less noise and less maintenance make cycling a whole lot more fun. Chain suck or reluctant gear shifting are yesterday’s news – why not use standard automotive technology on bicycles too. Who says that modern automotive technology can’t also be used on Pedelecs. From city riding to the trails - The GoSwiss Drive System is powerful and versatile and can be used in many different kinds of bicycle types. The clockwork among E-bike motors. Present and reliable The MPF motor However, the most important aspect of our work was and is the selection of our materials blend.
