History
1993
Inspired by discussions with BMW (the well know automotives producer) to develop a "Faltrad" our idea for a "Antriebsschwingensystem" for bicycles was born.
1994
First prototypes of the mentioned sprung system were built, series production and marketing started in cooperation with RS-Bikes (Reyschmidt & Starosta GmbH & Co. KG, then importer of US-bikes "Specialized").
1995
German Answer, our company, was officially registered. The "Antriebsschwingen" concept was developed further and marketed. The successful company strategy was taken well into the year 2000. The "Durango" bike was based on the "Antriebsschwinge" and became one of the lowest weight fullies (less than 10 kg) with everyday usability in the market.
