BZEN Vienna – a new benchmark for light, high-quality European e-bikes

BZEN Vienna has been awarded at the German Design Awards 2026 – a major recognition for what defines our brand: creating one of the lightest and best e-bikes in Europe, built with uncompromising quality. This achievement in Germany highlights our core strength: delivering a truly light e-bike engineered around real riders’ needs and crafted in Europe to the highest standards.

German Design Awards

With more than 3,900 entries from 57 countries, the German Design Awards celebrate projects that set new standards in innovation, design excellence and real-world relevance. Among competitors, the jury selected Vienna for its superlight weight, best-in-class comfort, and timeless urban design. It embodies what many riders demand today: a light e-bike that feels natural, safe, and effortless in everyday city life.

A light e-bike designed for real riders
Vienna’s design is built around one simple idea: daily mobility should feel safe and comfortable. At just around 15 kg, it rides like a natural extension of the rider — easy to lift, easy to maneuver and easy to trust in dense urban environments. This lightweight character is not only about convenience: it directly contributes to comfort, safety and control. Every start, every stop, every turn becomes simpler and more intuitive.

Built in Europe with uncompromising quality
Quality is a defining pillar of the BZEN brand. Vienna is built in Europe, using premium components and meticulous assembly processes that ensure longevity and reliability. The result is an e-bike that not only looks elegant but is built to last — a product that performs across years of daily use, not just seasons.

This European craftsmanship is one of the reasons Vienna earned praise in Germany, a market known for its high standards, discerning cyclists and strong design culture.

Why this award matters for BZEN
Being awarded in Germany strengthens BZEN’s position among Europe’s leading urban e-bike brands. It confirms that lightweight design, comfort and high build quality are not just aesthetic choices — they are real advantages that improve the everyday lives of riders.

The German Design Award also reinforces BZEN’s mission: to create the best e-bikes for modern city living, combining comfort, elegance, simplicity and performance without compromise.

A recognition that inspires the future
For BZEN, this award celebrates years of development, refinement and listening to riders’ needs — especially women who remain at the heart of the brand’s design philosophy. But it also sets the direction forward: continuing to lead in lightweight design, user-centric comfort and responsible European production.

BZEN Vienna winning the German Design Award 2026 stands as a strong message:
Urban mobility can be comfortable, effortless, stylish and truly built around people.
