As a global leader in professional locking solutions, Sinox stands by its commitment: "We meet you anywhere the market is". With the growing demand for sustainable mobility, the company continues to push the boundaries of innovation to enhance the e-bike riding experience.

In 2025, the company celebrates a decade of progress, engineering, and commitment to redefining the e-bike experience. What began as an ambitious project rooted in Italian innovation has evolved into a recognised force in the e-bike industry. And with a clear mission: to become the first choice for European brands in the urban mobility segment.

The demand for e-bikes continues to grow across Europe. While e-bikes have embraced innovations like adaptive lighting and touchscreen dashboards, core systems such as gear shifting still rely heavily on human input. To this day, manual shifting remains the industry standard.

An area that is often overlooked in the e-bike industry is how electric assisted bicycles and tricycles can hugely benefit the elderly and those with disabilities. Carefully engineered e-bikes and e-trikes that are stable, secure and adapted to the specific needs of the rider can offer a relatively new and inclusive mode of transport.

PALENCIA, Spain - To develop solutions that improve the efficiency and performance of e-bikes, Mahle SmartBike Systems has announced a new investment round of between €10 and €12 million annually in R&D. The announcement came shortly after Mahle CEO Arnd Franz stated that, "the e-bike sector was their standout success, supplying more than 60 e-bike brands across all segments."

HELSINKI, Finland - The Finnish bike sector may face a serious stagnation and decline of sales this year due to the national government's recent decision to abolish the tax benefit for companies' bicycles beginning in 2026.
