Stoll rolls into Graubünden and opens a carbon museum
Founded in 2016 as a garage start-up, Stoll Bikes focused on carbon production in Europe right from the start. Uncompromising in terms of quality, performance and individuality, the ambitious team quickly made a name for itself in the industry. The positioning in the high-end segment was underlined with every new development. From racing bikes to lightweight all-mountain bikes, the growing company now offers a wide range of the finest custom bikes "Made in Europe".
Door to a new region
So far, the headlines about Stoll Bikes have always revolved around new developments. In the fall of 2023, the company is taking a decisive step towards the interested public with its expansion into Graubünden. An insight into the bike manufactory is no longer only possible in Beringen, in the canton of Schaffhausen, but also on the way to the bike weekend in Graubünden.
"We don't just want to build the best bikes in the world, we also want to be the best service provider for our customers. That's why our second location is where many people ride their mountain bikes. Küblis is on the axis of the biggest bike destinations in Switzerland. Test rides, service, rental and events - all of this is now possible right in the center of the Alps on the best trails in the world," says Thomas Stoll, explaining the move to south-eastern Switzerland.More than just a bike shop
The Schaffhausen-based company takes over the building from Madlen and Georg Flütsch in Küblis. The Prättigau family is known nationwide for its ski touring and mountain biking expertise. Although the Schaffhausen-based company is more of a bike manufacturer than a bike store, the service for all existing "Velo Flütsch customers" will continue to be maintained at Stoll Bikes. "We wanted our loyal customers to be looked after even after the takeover. In Stoll Bikes, we have found an innovative successor who will work with us to offer a great service," says Georg Flütsch happily about his successor.
In addition to test rides, advice, sales and service, Stoll Bikes in Küblis offers an exciting insight into European carbon production on the second floor. In a kind of museum, all production steps are presented with real tools and made tangible for visitors. A look behind the scenes gives visitors an idea of how much knowledge and manual work goes into every single step of the production of the finished carbon frame. Interesting development prototypes, show and project bikes from the company's history are designed to make bikers' hearts beat faster and turn a visit into an experience.
On October 01, 2023, the store in Küblis will open for the first time under the name Stoll Bikes, with the opening party taking place on October 07/08.
