URWAHN STADTFUCHS – Next Level Urban E-Bike made with 3D Printing

URWAHN designs premium e-bikes crafted for the fast lane, made to reach destinations efficiently and achieve peak performance. Whether it’s city pavements, forest paths, or endless streets, we design for every natural habitat, drawing inspiration from the animal kingdom. Like the fox, weasel, and falcon, our bikes navigate the urban maze effortlessly.

With an innovative Softride design focused entirely on functionality—comfortable, lightweight, agile, and integrative—URWAHN has been creating uncompromisingly fair and functional premium mobility since 2013. Our approach is human-centred, with a focus on elegance, intense performance, and pure riding pleasure.

FAIRFRAME

This innovative concept is unprecedented, breaking away from traditional designs. The rear wheel is elastically suspended using steel's material properties, called Softride, which smooths out shocks and road irregularities. The bike combines unique riding comfort with a sturdy bottom bracket and head tube for direct propulsion and precise steering. With a monocoque appearance, it competes with aluminium frames in weight. The frame features a modular architecture with cross-model configuration options, designed for durability. This timeless approach extends the product's lifecycle, making it suitable for both urban and varied terrains.

STADTFUCHS

The wild STADTFUCHS is tailored to the fast-paced conditions of the city, blending design, functionality, comfort, and safety in a minimalist package. Inspired by the animal kingdom, the innovative SOFTRIDE steel frame, with its elastic rear suspension, smooths out all bumps, while the belt-driven electric motor ensures a swift and silent ride. The integrated LED lighting system illuminates potential hazards ahead, and GPS tracking keeps thieves at bay.

MADE IN GERMANY

With Integrated Design Engineering, URWAHN creates an interdisciplinary approach in product development, breaking away from old paradigms. URWAHN leverages efficient materials, design, and development processes, disrupting them with a holistic approach. Originality meets urban needs, established values blend with an optimisation frenzy. We shape a unique cosmos, a habitat between city and countryside, between asphalt and gravel. We create mobility for the present on the path to tomorrow.
