High-end cooperation: Stoll and Transalpes join forces

Transalpes Tuned by Stoll

Two mountain bike manufacturers from Switzerland, Stoll Bikes from Beringen and Transalpes Bike Manufaktur from Baar, are joining forces. The first result of the collaboration is an e-mountainbike, which is already lightweight on the part of Transalpes and is being put on a diet by Stoll. The e-bike rolls off with a weight of just 14 kilograms. It can now be tested and purchased from Stoll.

In 2021, Transalpes was the first manufacturer in the world to present an e-bike with the new e-bike system from Switzerland: the Bikedrive Air System. This is developed and produced by maxon in Sachseln. At 3.5 kg, the system is not only lighter but, according to Transalpes, also quieter than competitor systems. Thanks to its unique freewheel technology, the Transalpes E1 powered by maxon rides like a mountain bike without a motor.

Stoll Bikes is now offering its own version of the Transalpes e-mountainbike. Like all mountain bikes from Stoll Bikes, the e-bike is also customized for each customer and built with exclusive bike parts. The Transalpes tuned by Stoll can now be tested and purchased in the new Transalpes test center at Stoll Bikes in Beringen.

Hand-built bikes from Switzerland - tested on Mars with electric motors

Transalpes Bike Manufaktur has been building mountain bikes by hand for 21 years. Since 2016, Stoll Bikes has been offering custom solutions with carbon frames from European production. The two mountain bike manufacturers from Switzerland are now launching their cooperation with the e-mountain bike. "With Stoll Bikes and maxon, we are strengthening Switzerland as a manufacturing location and bringing together concentrated knowledge in the production of carbon frames and the development of electric motors," says Michel Juhasz, owner of Transalpes Bike Manufaktur.

Maxon has been building electric motors since 1961. For Mars vehicles and mountain bikes. The Bikedrive Air from maxon is virtually invisible, lightweight and as natural as mountain biking without a motor. "With the Transalpes tuned by Stoll, we can offer our customers an e-bike with an electric motor from Switzerland and the expertise of Stoll Bikes," adds Thomas Stoll, Managing Director of Stoll Bikes.
