We present the new veloheld.iron complete bike – your ultimate companion for real mountain bike challenges!
We have completely reworked the frame to build the most balanced bikepacking trail MTB for you. The geometry is not too extreme and is optimized for forks with 100 – 120 mm of travel. With multi-butted CrMo tubes and a double-butted top and down tube, the frame is strong enough for really rough rides through the undergrowth. The 29″ or 27.5″ tires up to 2.6″ width help you along the way.

The new T47 bottom bracket allows for a “clean” routing of the gear and brake cables directly through the frame, and the universal UDH derailleur hanger keeps your rear derailleur secure. By the way, we build the frame locally in our own frame-building workshop in Leipzig.

The veloheld.iron complete bike is available in the series color Lavender Sparkle or customized to your wishes in a RAL color.

Made with Love!

We weld every MTB steel frame ourselves – by hand, TIG, in our own frame building workshop in Leipzig. The tubes come from a specialist in Taiwan, the country where the best tubesets in the bicycle world have been drawn for decades. What becomes of them is made here, by us.

Only genuine with the iron

Our logo is laser-etched on the top tube. Underneath sits a geometry that is deliberately not extreme: agile enough for tight trails, calm enough when things get rough, stable enough with luggage. A steel hardtail, simply perfect for ironing your way through the undergrowth.

Be creative!

Stock color too boring? Then tell us your RAL color of choice – glossy or matt, with decal in black or silver. We coat your veloheld.iron in exactly that, one frame at a time. In the end you ride a steel hardtail you won’t run into again on any trail.

In the wild!
