Alskar
The Visionaries of Sustainable Product Design

Whether it is high-end carbon mountain bikes and city e-bikes or cargo bikes and mobility scooters, Alskar’s designers know exactly what the bikes need to make them one with the rider!

The company is not just responsible for the best bicycles but also for sports products, medical devices, and other professional tools. For clients who seek to produce the products of tomorrow, Alskar helps with building the best design strategies. The company houses a senior design team that has more than 120 years of product design experience. With a team that strong, Alskar empowers clients to turn the ‘chrysalis’ of their ideas into the beautiful ‘butterflies’ of the final products.

To begin, the company outlines a strategic, visual document through comprehensive research (academic and experimental). The document (usually 60-80 pages) helps clients determine the direction they can take for concept development, interaction, and functionality of the product. The entire outline is built upon the identity of the client organisation and even highlights potential business opportunities of the product. Besides, Alskar also observes, studies, and interviews potential users of the product to understand is nuances and identify potential improvements.

When building the solutions, the company also experiments and tests new ideas. The process entails several iterations of ideation, mockups, and testing. Then, Alskar starts creating the proofs-of-concept and evaluating them on functionality, ergonomics, and use, enabling them to assess the solutions in real-life conditions.

The product design concept is brought to life by Alskar through the first fully functional prototype (T1), which is created using powerful 3D CAD software. Once every part is designed, the connections between them are made, and the standard components are integrated seamlessly. Even the materials, production methods, treatments, and coatings are carefully selected by Alskar according to product requirements before finalising large-scale production.

A clear testament to Alskar’s capability is the comin’ scooter, which the company helped develop recently. It is a light and foldable vehicle perfect for short trips and last-mile travels. The scooter comes in a unique designand a patented s-curved steering column,ensuring that the vehicle is large enough to ride but can be folded compactly. It is also equipped with a powerful foot-operated brake, which offers great braking performance even during wet weather conditions.

Propelled by its accomplishments and contributions, Alskar is all set to dominate the product design landscape. The company’s network of suppliers in the bike industry ensures that its clients have access to the best components, whether it is for creating cutting-edge bikes or other products. Alskar works with every company—multinationals, medium-sized companies, or even startups—that is looking for detailed, strategic, and high-quality design. Moving forward, Alskar will continue building products based on vision and strategy, paving the way for more beautiful and innovative products that are truly made to serve the people.
