VELLO Bike
Off to a great start, the idea was conceptualized and turned into a successful reality by veteran entrepreneurs Valentin Vodev and Valerie Wolff, who raised over USD 1 million in 2017 through the Kickstarter and Indiegogo crowdfunding platforms. Many design awards and accomplishments later, today VELLO is a full-fledged bike manufacturing company.
VELLO’s brilliance lies in borrowing an effective technology from the car industry, specifically from Formula 1 racing, and transforming a familiar object – bikes – into an innovation that changes lives.
Based in Vienna, VELLO embodies everything that’s uniquely wonderful about the city – elegance, style, mobility, reliability, and a great lifestyle.
