Company History
BPG Werks explored novel personal mobility, first with the UNO balancing concept and later with the tracked DTV Shredder—half skateboard, half small vehicle. The focus was inventive packaging and control systems rather than traditional motorcycles. While niche, the projects showcased engineering creativity and drew attention to alternative off-road platforms.
