As a leading manufacturer of bike accessories, we have been ensuring that wheels are rolling. The “Made in Germany“ label of quality reflects the high demands we place in quality, function and design. The products are developed in our internal development and design departments before they are put through their paces.

High quality mini pumps and frame pumps, precise suspension pumps and stand pumps in addition to the cult product, the RENNKOMPRESSOR, characterise the air pump range. The pumps are characterised by comfortable features, high pumping performances and robust materials.

SKS GERMANY has also a global reputation for its innovative mudguards for all wheel and frame sizes. They provide optimal protection from dirt and splash water.

In addition to compact bike tools, chainguards, bottles, bottle cages, bags and bike liquids, a smartphone holder system with inductive charging and a tyre pressure sensor have also been integrated in the SKS range in order to provide even greater biking comfort with additional digital accessories.

Made in Germany

The global market has created an environment in which it is a challenge (and a passion) for traditional companies to continue to manufacture competitively in Germany and to provide employment to over 400 employees in the region. In addition, up to 30 young people are continuously in training at SKS for a future in business. SKS has been awarded with the seal of approval »Ausgezeichneter Ausbildungsbetrieb« (Excellent Training Company).

Youth and amateur cycling sports clubs and regional cycling events are regularly supported by SKS. These events include especially the annual Mountainbike Festival, »Mega-Sports«, which takes place in Sundern. Participants from all over the world attempt to conquer Sauerland’s heights in this challenging SKS Bicycle Marathon.

Professional bicycle equipment is proudly produced in Sundern and displays the distinctive logo in the characteristic SKS orange. A color that represents strength, action and progress and blazes like the fire which has burned tirelessly in the heart of the company for 100 years.
