Test winner Elektrorad 03/21

Our suspension G.2 ST seatposts are test winner in the seatpost test of the electric bike magazine (issue 03/21)

Recommendation Aktiv Radfahren 5/2020

by,schulz SDS – Clean Cockpit
SDS means “Stem Docking System” and describes a product group around specially designed stem caps to centrally organize all kinds of gadgets like speedometer, GPS, lights, camera and even e-bike displays. Due to the screwed design in solid aluminum, the whole thing also turns out extremely stable and secure. The stem cap is the central component in which various links and adapters are inserted. The positioning is simple and fast via a single screw, which is tightened at the front. By using a double link, a Navigati-onsgerät finds its place directly in front of the stem in the perfect field of view. A light or camera can be mounted underneath.

Recommendation Aktiv Radfahren 5/2019

Keeping an eye on the time – Speedlifter A-Head Clock
If you want to check the time while riding, you usually do it with a speedometer, GPS or sports watch. However, the Speedlifter version is much simpler and more sophisticated.
For this purpose, the existing A-head cap on the stem is replaced by a model made of CNC-milled aluminum, which takes a waterproof analog clock. The clock is fixed via a screw mount. The cap for this is available in ten different colors and allows an adaptation to the color theme of the wheel.

Test winner Aktiv Radfahren 9-10/2018

16 seatposts in direct test and comparison.
The by,schulz G.2 LT is test winner
