The HEPHA Trekking 7 is the perfect overall package of design, functionality, smart features and an outstanding price-performance ratio. The team behind it has set itself the goal of making micromobility affordable for every cyclist. The German Design Council recognizes this approach and gives the newcomer in the bike industry a »Winner« award. This year, eleven nationalities were represented on the jury of the German Design Award 2023, who awarded prizes to the best products in each category from over 4,500 submitted products. It is made up of design experts from business, teaching and science as well as the design industry. All jury members are recognized personalities in their fields.
