The T-100 features a quality-crafted chromoly steel frame that can go anywhere your legs will take you. Steel bikes have a reputation for being heavy: not so with chromoly. “Chromo” is an alloy that is light, corrosion resistant, and feels soft to ride. It absorbs vibrations while it glides effortlessly through all kinds of terrain, supporting you in just the right ways. Unlike Dutch-style bikes, the T-100 is designed to go further, with fully adjustable geometry that allows you to dig in a little to climb a hill, or enjoy taking “the long way home” on a sunny spring afternoon.
While all the bikes we feature at LBC have lights, fenders, rear racks, chain guards, and kickstands, the entire Fahrrad lineup incorporates these features perfectly into their design. Innovative features like the Hebie Chainglider and Racktime Carrier are already included in this incredible machine, while its dynamo lighting system illuminates your path with a 30 Lux Busch and Muller headlamp.

VSF Fahrradmanufaktur are imported into Canada duty-free. Most bikes brought into Canada (from Taiwan or mainland China) have a steep duty associated with them (~13%, depending on the bike). Fortunately for us, the Canada-European Union (EU) Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) has eliminated the duty on bikes made in Europe, and Fahrradmanufaktur is Made in Germany. This means more of your bike dollar is spent on crafting a quality ride, and less of your money is spent on taxes. Isn’t that awesome?
