Kettler Exercise Bike

Kettler is a legendary name in the fitness and leisure industry, renowned for its commitment to German engineering and quality. Founded in 1949 by Heinz Kettler in Ense-Parsit, Germany, the brand initially gained fame for its aluminum bicycles and later for its iconic Kettcar pedal cars and home fitness equipment.

Historically, most Kettler exercise bikes were manufactured in Germany, carrying the 'Made in Germany' seal of quality. However, following financial restructuring in the late 2010s, the brand and its production underwent changes. While core product development often retains its roots, portions of the manufacturing for various lines are also staged in international locations like China to maintain competitive global positioning.

Starting in 2020, the brand's sports and fitness division was acquired by the Swiss-based Trisport AG, ensuring the brand's legacy continues through the mid-2020s and beyond as a leader in premium home fitness equipment.
