| News about the Smart Free | | |
| With the Smart Free, we are the first handbike manufacturer worldwide to integrate a genuine bike-by-wire system. A technology that is fundamentally changing handcycling.
Together with French manufacturer Cixi, we are continuing to develop the system specifically for handbike use. The requirements differ significantly from those of classic bicycle systems, which makes the development particularly exciting and challenging.
This opens up a whole new chapter in the handbike industry. The fact that other handbike manufacturers are now also exploring this technology demonstrates the groundbreaking nature of this approach for the entire industry.
An exact date for production has not been set yet, but there is every reason to believe that the Smart Free will set new standards in the handbike sector. |
| | | | | We are already busy manufacturing more handbikes with the visionary bike-by-wire technology. As soon as further test drives are possible, trials will be open to anyone interested. You can use our notification service to find out when and where the next test rides will take place. This will be possible at the 2026 trade fairs in particular. If you are interested in receiving specific information about the Smart Free (release, test ride, etc.), please use our notification service! |

 | We are a new sponsor of BBC Münsterland | | |
| BBC Münsterland has been one of the leading teams in German wheelchair basketball for many years. As an established first division club, it impressively demonstrates how dynamic, technically demanding, and thrilling wheelchair basketball can be at the highest level. Under the leadership of coach Marcel Fedde, the team continues to develop and make its mark in the league. |
| | | The start of the 2025/2026 season was outstanding: In their first game, BBC Münsterland beat RBB München Iguanas 88-78 – a successful start that leaves us wanting more. The BBC also won their game against RB Zwickau e.V. on November 22, 2025. We are keeping our fingers crossed for the rest of the season. | | |
| We are delighted to be the official sponsor of BBC Münsterland with immediate effect, supporting a team that combines passion, team spirit, and active inclusion. It is important to us to show that exercise and sport are also possible in a wheelchair. With our sponsorship, we want to promote inclusion and support a team that convincingly combines commitment and athletic performance. |
