Welcome to Skeppshult
Skeppshultcykeln AB is a privately owned company with
approximately 60 employees who manufacture cycles under the
SKEPPSHULT brand. It is the only company in Sweden to have an
unbroken history of manufacturing (welding and painting) frames,
building wheels and assembling cycles in its own factory since its
foundation in Skeppshult in 1911.
Major investments have been made in recent years and the factory in
Skeppshult is now a modern plant where new technology and
traditional craftsmanship go hand in hand.
Cycles from Skeppshult are renowned for their high quality and good
design. As proof of this the Skeppshult cycle is the only cycle to
receive the prestigious award of Swedish Design Excellence.
Skeppshult was awarded in 1998 for its Z bike, which is a
co-operation with Swedish designer Björn Dahlström.
The work with Björn Dahlström continued and resulted in the SOFT
bike 2004, which was appointed "Bike of the year" by the Swedish
consumer organization "Cykelfrämjandet". This award has also been
appointed to Skeppshult for the ARC/Nova bikes in 2001 and the STC
bike in 2006.
Skeppshult was awarded Royal Warrant by His Majesty the King of
Sweden in 1993, which means that we have the honour of being the
supplier to His Majesty, King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden and the
Royal family.
Another proof for Skeppshult's good reputation is the appointment
to "Supplier of the year 2006" by the bicycle business magazine
Sportfack. This award is judged by the dealers in Sweden who rates
the suppliers in the following categories: Service, Deliveries,
Sales support, Profitability, Quality, Demand and Warranty claims.
It is the 7th year of this prize and Skeppshult also won 2000,
2001, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2010. (In 2002,
2003 and 2009 Skeppshult came second).
Skeppshult chooses only the best suppliers for components such
as Shimano, Brooks leather saddles, DT Swiss spokes, Selle Royal
saddles and Schwalbe tires.
The company is mainly working on the Swedish market and the cycles
are sold in Sweden through authorised cycle dealers. However,
Skeppshult is currently building a net of retailers on the
international market -- click on the link below for retailer
locations. If you want to buy a Skeppshult cycle and live nowhere
near a retailer or local distributor - no problem, Skeppshult can
send you a cycle anywhere in the world. For further information
