The Italian brand Ursus was founded in 1967 by Sergio Ferronato, after he developed a first patented quick-release clamp for seat posts in 1966 – his initial step into the bicycle industry. Ursus quickly specialized in mechanical bicycle components, including hubs, brakes, and especially bicycle kickstands, and gained international recognition over time. Today, Ursus stands for Italian engineering, precision, and durable components that are used in more than 40 countries around the world.
The name “Ursus” was inspired by a classic film: during a cinema visit, the founder saw the gladiator Ursus in the epic movie “Quo Vadis,” fighting bravely and persistently against a bull. Inspired by the gladiator and his strength, determination, and endurance, Ferronato chose the name Ursus for his company – combined with the image of the bull as a symbol of challenges to be overcome. At Radfieber you can find stable bicycle kickstands from Ursus.

Ursus Ständer MOOI, verstellbar, silber Ständer MOOI Silber für Schindelhauer ohne PinionUrsus was founded in 1967 by Sergio Ferronato in Italy. The name goes back to the gladiator Ursus from the film Quo Vadis, whose strength and perseverance inspired the founder. A year earlier, in 1966, Ferronato had developed a patented quick-release clamp for seatposts that laid the foundation for the company. Ursus specialised in mechanical bicycle components and built its reputation primarily with kickstands, hubs and brakes. Today the brand stands for Italian engineering, precision and durable parts that are appreciated worldwide.
The first Ursus product was a quick-release clamp for seatposts, characterised by its simple and functional design. Over time bicycle hubs, brakes and finally kickstands were added, which now form the core range. Ursus has specialised in stands over the years and offers different variants for various frames and areas of use. The company has deliberately focused its product range on mechanical components and has not expanded into other areas.
Ursus products are sold in over 40 countries worldwide. Distribution channels include specialist bicycle shops, online stores and parts dealers. The brand is particularly strong in Europe, where Italian bicycle components are traditionally valued. The exact number of sales outlets is in the high three-digit to low four-digit range. Ursus is regularly present at international bicycle trade fairs such as Eurobike.
Among the products offered on the page a choice can be made between two variants of the MOOI stand. The adjustable MOOI is intended for Schindelhauer bicycles without Pinion gear, while the MOOI Fix was developed specifically for Schindelhauer models with Mahle e-bike drive. Both stands are made of steel, available at the same price and mounted on the chainstay. The difference lies in adjustability and compatibility with different drive variants.
