Greta is the city all-rounder. A low-maintenance bike with full equipment. Whether for commuting to work, as a family bike or for longer tours – Greta is equipped for many uses with its Shimano 8-speed gear system. Carbon belt drive, front luggage rack, mudguards and integrated LED lighting with hub dynamo and disc brakes make every ride on this bike an experience.
Mounted on the frame, the steering remains agile even with heavier loads. An integral part of the carrier concept are the innovative tension straps (VarioStraps), which can be individually adjusted to the size and shape of the load.

At its core sits a step-through trapez frame in 6061 aluminium, flat-welded with aero-profiled tubes, while a curved aluminium fork adds further comfort. Propulsion comes from a Gates Carbon Drive belt running over a belt port with a sliding tensioning system, unfolding a 307 percent gear spread in concert with the Shimano Nexus 8-speed hub. This pairing shines in town: the hub holds gear changes robust and precise, while the belt runs quiet, clean and low-wear. Hydraulic disc brakes with 160 mm rotors provide controlled, powerful stopping, and the lighting – hub dynamo, LED headlight and an integrated tail light with standlight – makes Greta complete in every season. It is equally at home with luggage: the frame-mounted front rack with VarioStraps moves up to 15 kilograms with ease.
The model name consists of one single element – the given name Greta. It comes from the Scandinavian and German language area and is the endearing short form of Margareta, whose root carries the meaning 'pearl'. Short, clear and understood across borders, it stands for a character that convinces without fuss – a fitting self-description for a bicycle that rethinks the everyday ride.
Greta shares its series with a closely related sibling, Gustav – up to one decisive fork in the road: the frame shape. Gustav offers the classic look of the diamond frame with a straight top tube; Greta opts for a step-through trapez frame. Nothing changes in the engineering: both rely on the flat-welded 6061 aluminium frame with aero tubing, the Gates Carbon belt, the Shimano Nexus 8-speed hub and hydraulic disc brakes front and rear. Riders who value an upright, relaxed position with easy entry will find their answer in Greta.
Greta's home turf is the urban space: short rides to work, the walk to the nursery, the stop at the market, or an evening lap through the park. The low step-through simplifies mounting and dismounting, the 47 mm wide WTB Horizon tyres on 27.5-inch wheels ease cobbles and keep gravel sections predictable. The dynamo-powered lights with standlight do away with batteries, the double kickstand levels the bike even fully loaded, and the frame-mounted front rack with VarioStraps permits loads up to 15 kilograms – plenty for light bikepacking. Where Gustav searches for the sporty middle ground with its diamond frame, Greta stands for comfort and accessibility: a bicycle for everyone who treats the everyday bike as a deliberate choice rather than a compromise. Family days are covered too, since a child seat can be attached without fuss.
