Company History
Zweirad-Union consolidated respected German names to produce efficient commuters for a rebuilding nation. The bikes favored practical engineering, parts commonality, and dealer reach. Although later absorbed into larger groups, the brand’s products exemplify postwar German priorities: reliability, service access, and the quiet dignity of well-made small machines.
