The VANBIKE consists of a thin-walled special round tube that is cut on a 3D tube laser, CNC-bent and welded to laser-cut sheet metal parts. To protect against corrosion, it is primed using the KTL process (cathode dip painting). The multiple holes ensure that the inside of the tubes is also coated. The VANBIKE is then powder-coated in RAL 9005 (matt black).
Yes, the VANBIKE can be coated in any RAL color upon request. However, this is subject to an additional charge and a longer delivery time.
