Our 12-inch wheels:
The optimum for the city
During the development of the Kwiggle, we tested everything from 8-inch to 10-inch and 20-inch wheels.
We discovered that 12-inch wheels offer an optimum compromise between riding comfort and maneuverability.
Even though millions of people ride through the cities on 8-inch or 10-inch e-scooters, we wanted to achieve even more riding comfort and safety.
16- and 20-inch wheels do have a slight advantage in terms of comfort, but this is clearly at the expense of maneuverability - especially in busy urban areas.
which is particularly important in busy cities.
In order to achieve a comparable level of comfort with 12-inch wheels, we have deliberately chosen wide tires with 50 mm,
to ride just as comfortably on uneven roads as with larger wheels.
The result: an amazingly comfortable ride!
By the way: Our patented drive system ensures that you don't have to pedal any faster on our 12-inch wheels than on larger wheels.
The new lightness of cycling
It's better to ride a folding bike upright
If you ride upright, you need fewer gears. Why? The lower gears are for riding uphill. If you ride uphill standing up, you shift into a heavier gear and let your weight do the work. That's why the upright Kwiggler can climb the same hills with 3 gears as another folding bike with 6 gears.
With conventional cycling, the upper body is constantly in an inclined position. This puts strain on your back, shoulders and wrists.
When riding the Kwiggle in an upright position, on the other hand, all muscles remain relaxed and in motion, the joints are relieved and in the upright sitting position you put more pressure on the pedals and therefore ride faster than with conventional folding bikes.
HANDMADE in GERMANY
After more than 10 years of development and countless long-term load tests, experienced engineers and technicians succeeded in bringing the Kwiggle to market,
mechanical engineer Karsten Bettin, succeeded in launching the Kwiggle on the market.
The superior folding bike concept was quickly well received. With the help of a strong investor and capital provider, the Lower Saxony development bank NBank, KwiggleBike GmbH has expanded worldwide over the last four years. Kwiggle bikes now ride on every continent.
At the Hanover site, specialists manufacture and assemble every single Kwiggle by hand!
Intensive quality assurance is always carried out before dispatch.
The result: unparalleled material and manufacturing quality - and thousands of satisfied customers.
and thousands of satisfied customers.

THE FRAME
We only use high-strength stainless steel and 7000-series aluminum for the frame of the Kwiggle.
-
The stainless steel steering tube and high-quality silver-brazed stainless steel joints bring springy comfort and ensures long-term stability.
-
All moving parts of the precision folding joints are equipped with extremely high quality wear protection..This ensures a robust, precisely closing joint, and with just one twist. This is unique and patented.
-
The lower frame parts have tab-like weld seams for the best possible stress distribution, manufactured with industrial robots in consistently outstanding MIG quality.
-
The rear frame section is particularly elegant and light and constructed as a single swingarm.
-
The fork is made from only one piece. This makes it light and strong at the same time.
-
We use sealed heavy duty 1.5 inch industrial angular contact ball bearings as the steering head bearings.
THE RIMS
In a special manufacturing process, the Kwiggle rims are manufactured from a single piece of wrought aluminum alloy, unique in the world, with outstanding properties:
-
light and rigid at the same time
-
wear-resistant even after many thousands of kilometers
-
highly corrosion resistant
-
highest running accuracy
-
polished noble look
This precision and robustness allows smooth running even at high speeds of 60 km/h (37 mph).
THE DRIVE
For maintenance, we recommend the oil and grease-free chain lubricant "DryFluids". High ceramic content provides a pleasant pedaling feel and significantly less dirt.
THE 6-SPEED-SPEEDDRIVE
- Gear ratio 1:1.65
- Crank length 170 mm
- 5-arm, bolt circle 104mm
- 1 kettingblad met 34 T
- Transmission: 3.1 - 7.2 m
- with integrated chain guard, 7075-T6 aluminum
With the shift bars on the crank, it is now comfortable to shift. Our reason to use the speeddrive now also in the Kwiggle.
THE 3-SPEED CRANK UNIT
- Miche Team CPT
- Crank length 170 mm
- 5-arm, bolt circle 110mm
- 1 chainring with 46 Z
- with integrated chain guard, 7075-T6 aluminum
Chain wheel and chain guard are made of one piece, which results in a very noble look.
THE TROLLEY WHEELS
In trolley mode, the Kwiggle is easy to pull. Just like a trolley suitcase.
The trolley wheels are made extra large for this purpose, so that pulling of the folded Kwiggle is easy and pleasant everywhere, even on uneven terrain.
THE BRAKES
THE LIGHTING
The rear light
The Spanninga No. 9 with reflector and battery convinces with its retro look.
THE LUGGAGE RACK
The luggage rack is another highlight on the Kwiggle. We wanted our customers to be able to use their Ortlieb bike panniers, if they already have them, without having to spend extra money on a separate luggage system. We have developed a luggage carrier that fits perfectly into the folding size, allows at least 10 kg payload and at the same time weighs only 75 g..
All current Ortlieb rear-wheel or Ortlieb front-wheel bags fit on the luggage carrier.
THE PEDALS
MKS XP-EZY with reflectore, only 330g.Perfect functioning plug-in principle.
Quality made in Japan.
We use plug-in pedals. This makes the folding size of the Kwiggle 2 cm narrower and has therefore hand luggage size..
The pedal is very easy to remove with one hand and is significantly more robust than any folding pedal.
Quality made in Japan.
