STEVENS Qualitätskontrolle

QUALITY CONTROL

Consistent and independent

There are two characteristics that STEVENS bikes are particularly known for – their lightweight agility and extremely durabilityble. We’ll let you in on a little secret – we succeed in combining these seemingly opposing characteristics by developing, then testing, testing and more testing.

Our And the testing continues goes on well past the final phase where our engineers are applying theeir finishing touches to their masterpieces – it continues , straight throughout  tothe serial  entire production process. We continuously consistently monitor our stock production to ensure that it remains at the same high-quality level as our prototype. This is why we do not separate development from production, as it is all part of the same continuous process. This is also why our designers are personally involved in and responsible for the assurance of quality in serial production.

INDEPENDENT EXPERTISE

We may try to be our own harshest critics, but just to be sure we call on outside help when it comes to quality control.

Not only does he test  our individual STEVENS products like frames (both carbon fiberfibre and aluminium models), forks, seatposts, and wheels but also tests them in the exact combination that they are assembled on each of our bike models. By knowing our numbers, we can be both light and durable at the same time.
