The name? A spontaneous inspiration.

The brand was originally supposed to be called " DRAIS " – named after the inventor of the balance bike, a source of inspiration for all developments in the field of mobility. But the name was trademarked. During a long night of brainstorming, Andy and his then-mentor ordered sushi . And suddenly it was clear: This is it! Unusual, memorable, different – ​​just like our bike.

Our Story - How it all began

SUSHI BIKES is more than a brand—it's the vision of our founder, Andy, who had a simple yet revolutionary idea in 2018: an e-bike for those who didn't really want one. Together with his father, he built the first prototype in their home workshop. And yes, it was stolen right at the first photoshoot. Nevertheless, things continued—and things took off pretty quickly.

Founded in 2019, over 35,000 SUSHI BIKES are now on the road. With every piece of feedback, every model, and every ride, our community grows—and with it, our commitment to improving mobility.

The history of SUSHI BIKES

1997

Andy and his sister grew up with their father Thomas in his bicycle workshop, which he ran in the evenings after his full-time job at BMW.

2008

At the age of 13, Andy went on longer bike tours with his father Thomas, for example to Milan, Rome, Paris, Prague, Vienna.

2010

Andy becomes “Munich’s first cycling star”!

2011 - 2014

In 2011, Andy launched his own online magazine after his writing was rejected by other publishers. In 2014, he launched Sponsor Mio, a project designed to connect young talent with brands – but both projects fell short of expectations.

May 2018

Andy was outraged when his father, a cycling enthusiast, bought an e-bike. Thomas had to force Andy to ride it. "After I rode it through Schwabing, I was totally blown away!"

June 2018

Andy and dad Thomas build the first prototype together in the bicycle workshop. The prototype was stolen during the first photo shoot.

July 2018

Andy took his first bike design to the Eurobike trade fair and met with 20 suppliers. 18 of them called him crazy when he wanted an e-bike for under €1,000. A single supplier thought it was possible. This supplier then actually built the first 11,000 SUSHI BIKES.

August 2018

Andy gets a stand at the "Streetlife Festival" in Munich and gets the chance to exhibit his bike there for the first time. With this campaign, Andy managed to collect 1,100 entries for his Kick Starter campaign.

2019

SUSHI BIKES is founded.

July 2019

The SUSHI BIKES online shop goes live. The first orders roll in – and the vision becomes reality.

2020

The first batch of SUSHI BIKES is on the road. The team is moving into its first office, with the second following shortly thereafter.

2021

Our e-bikes are entering the next generation: the SUSHI BIKES+ models are being launched. Team rides and events are growing not only the brand but also our community.

2022

SUSHI BIKES turns 3 years old!

2023

Launch of the SUSHI BIKE 3.0 – with a prototype, series production, and a large-scale photo shoot. The team moves into the new office and celebrates 4 years of SUSHI with a party and Christmas celebration.

2024

The next big step: the launch of the SUSHI BIKE 3.0+ with new features and colors. Accompanied by community events, team parties, and our crowdfunding, we're opening SUSHI even more to everyone.
