Trek Bikes - Assembled in Germany

When you ride a Trek in Europe, there’s a good chance your bike was brought to life in a quiet corner of Saxony, Germany. That’s where you’ll find the Diamant Fahrradwerke — a vibrant, history-packed factory that’s been building bikes since 1885. 

Trek took over the Diamant Fahrradwerke in 2003, and Diamant’s historic factory in Hartmannsdorf has been the heart of our European production for Trek, Diamant, and Electra bikes ever since.

A legacy of craftsmanship

Diamant isn’t just any name. It’s Germany’s oldest continuously operating bicycle brand. From the Nevoigt brothers’ first workshop to weathering world wars and reunification, the story of Diamant is one of resilience and dedication to the ride. 

When Trek stepped in, we didn’t just acquire a brand. We embraced a workshop, a workforce, and a culture that matches our own values and roots. Today, this factory is still a place where real people make real things. More than 400 skilled mechanics work here, putting together almost every Trek and Electra bike sold in Europe, plus every single Diamant.

Built for Europe, by Europe

In a world where bikes are often shipped across oceans before they hit the showroom floor, there’s something special about being close to home. Assembling bikes right here means quicker delivery, easier service, and better alignment with what riders here want and need — from standards to style to everyday performance.

We’re proud to build for European roads, weather, and ways of life. And we’re investing in the future of that promise, expanding our Hartmannsdorf facility to keep delivering more bikes without compromising the quality we’re known for.

This factory runs on people power

Take a walk through the halls in Hartmannsdorf and you’ll see tools, machines, and frames in motion — but what stands out most is the people. There’s a rhythm to the place. A calm energy in the way teams work together. Some have deep local roots. Others bring fresh perspectives from all over Europe and beyond. 

Many languages are spoken here, but the values are shared: respect for heritage, pride in craftsmanship, and a deep belief in doing the work right.
