In autumn, the days gradually become shorter and cooler. This makes us think all the more fondly of the hot summer days. Many hours and many joys on two wheels from MYVELO.

But MYVELO is not only sporty on two wheels. In the person of Harald Rettich, VLN long-distance pilot, with the Leutheuser Racing team , we had the sporting pleasure of taking part in the 24-hour race on the Nürburgring. Harald was able to cover short distances comfortably with our fast Mini Electric Bike Zurich and thus had more effective time to plan his breaks. This also reflected his extremely strong performance.

We are proud to have been at the track with Team Leutheuser Racing and to have supported them in a very strong performance. After the successful weekend at the Nürburgring, we were also able to be there in Barcelona in August. MYVELO once again supported Harald in his strong performance.
We are looking forward to further engine tests on the race track in 2021... Pictures speak more than 1000 words... We are looking forward to 2020! MYVELO - also very strong on 4 wheels!


On large areas such as race tracks, electric folding bikes offer numerous advantages for pedestrians who want to get from A to B quickly. They are compact, maneuverable and, thanks to the assistance of the electric motor, also suitable for less experienced riders. On a race track that covers long distances between the different areas, electric folding bikes allow quick and easy mobility without the need for a car or a long walk.

The folding bike design is particularly advantageous in tight or crowded areas as it is easy to fold and transport. During a race, staff, visitors or participants moving around the site can get from one section to another in no time at all without having to rely on the shuttle service.

Another advantage is the low noise level, which is an advantage on a race track as it does not amplify traffic and other sources of noise. Especially at events such as the 24-hour races, it is important that traffic does not disturb while still allowing efficient movement.

In addition, the range of modern electric folding bikes allows flexible use throughout the entire day of the event without having to worry about charging. Batteries can often be used for several hours, making them ideal for longer events.
