Festive reopening: Bike Factory in Neumarkt with a charity campaign!

A new chapter in the Neumarkt sports and leisure world begins! On December 2nd, 2025, the sports shop “Bike Factory by Flemmerer” will open its doors on Blomenhofstrasse and promises an exciting experience for all cycling enthusiasts. The Flemmerer family is building on the success story of their former business, which ended in 2018. After being sold to a successor who went bankrupt, the company's return is welcome news for the region.

The opening will not only be a celebration for cycling enthusiasts, but will also support a good cause. The proceeds from the sale of mulled wine, children's punch, gingerbread and bratwurst rolls go to the Tagblatt aid association “For People in Need”. This association helps people who are in need in the Neumarkt district in an unbureaucratic manner and is therefore a valuable support for the community.

Promotions and highlights at the opening

On the opening day from 12.30 p.m., visitors can look forward to great activities. In addition to a competition, everyone has the opportunity to explore the newly designed store. They can also bring their skis for service and look forward to the premiere of the Crussis e-bikes with Avinox drive. These models are equipped with a lightweight carbon frame and offer an interesting test ride for anyone who wants to take a look at the new products now before they officially come onto the market in 2026.

However, amidst these positive developments, there are also challenges in the industry. The German mountain bike manufacturer YT Industries, known for its award-winning products, has filed for self-administration bankruptcy. This step was decided by the Bamberg District Court on July 15, 2025. There are many reasons for this, including the consequences of the corona pandemic, interruptions in supply chains and problems in the US market. YT Industries illustrates the volatile conditions in which the bicycle industry is currently operating and shows the importance of innovation and adaptation.

The market conditions for bicycle companies

Bankruptcies in the industry are increasing, making it necessary to closely monitor market conditions. Efficient statistics on business registrations and de-registrations as well as insolvency proceedings statistics provided by the Federal Statistical Office help to get an overview of the economic situation. They provide valuable information about the number of bankruptcies, founders and the different economic sectors in which the companies operate. This transparency is crucial in order to meet the challenges of the future and stabilize operations.

Nevertheless, the sports industry, particularly cycling, remains a fascinating field full of possibilities. The return of “Bike Factory by Flemmerer” and the commitment to the community are steps in the right direction and show the potential for positive development in Neumarkt.

Visit the opening and support not only a local business, but also the people in your area!
