Scotland with its breathtaking nature fascinates many travellers – and with good reason! Perfect for an 8bar adventure – Bikepacking Scotland!

The 8bar team participated in the third edition of Grinduro Scotland. A story about adventure, trails, whisky and above all, a lot of gravel.

All it takes for a micro adventure is a mild summer evening, good friends and a bike. Video: Stefan Haehnel

We love cycling and we love to do it the whole year round. With the 8bar MITTE we reinvented the wheel and developed an All-Road-Bike that can changes its geometry completely from a road bike to a cross and adventure bike. It is back in stock and available in new colors. 

Chris Schorr is a bike enthusiast, a passionate gearhead, a bikepacker and the 8bar team’s kitman. There are only a few moments when you meet him without a bike. Reason enough to introduce Chris to you.

We love to ride our bikes ourselves and go on trips that deviate somewhat from the average. This time we decided on Africa, the Atlas Mountains in the middle of Morocco to be more precise, as our next destination. 

Roberto from Italy is an adventurer who discovered several destinations by bike so far. Now he has been to New Zealand with his 8bar MITTE for a couple of weeks. Here is his story. Prepare to become jealous now.

The 8bar MITTE bike is real! Frames and bikes are delivered to those who backed our Kickstarter campaign to make this happen. Now you can check out the available options and get yours.

The 8bar Mitte will be the 1st convertible All-Road-Bike and it’s in production right now. Here’re some first impression from the production.

In December 2015 time had come for a new very special challenge. Far away from traffic and tourism the 8bar adventure took place in Africa this time: At the Atlas Mountains in the middle of Morocco.

For our newest bike model, the 8bar MITTE, we literally re-invented the wheel and came up with the idea of a convertible all-road bike. Get some first sneak peeks and find out about our Kickstarter campaign.
