Kronan is a iconic Swedish bicycle brand that gained popularity in the 1990s by selling modernized versions of the Swedish military's rugged utility bikes. The brand was originally inspired by the m/42 military model produced by companies like Monark and Husqvarna.

While the heritage is deeply Swedish, production has shifted over the years to various international locations to maintain cost-efficiency, primarily in Taiwan. The brand has changed hands several times throughout its history and is currently under the management of a specialized mobility and lifestyle group focused on urban cycling heritage.
