Türkiye ranks 4th in Europe in bicycle production
Türkiye has emerged as the fourth largest bicycle producer in Europe, according to an industry representative.
The country also ranks sixth in Europe in bicycle and e-bikes sales, Bayram Akgül, president of the World Bicycle Industry Association (WBIA), told state-run Anadolu Agency.
However, domestic demand is lagging, Akgül said, adding, “The Confederation of the European Bicycle Industry (CONEBI) reported last year that Türkiye’s production capacity is strong, but it’s not sufficiently reflected in the domestic market.”
One of the key reasons is that bicycles are not used as a mode of transportation in daily life, he said.
