E-bikes are clearly a big thing at the moment. From electric leisure bikes to sporty e-mountain bikes to useful cargo bikes, there are now models available for every need.

One of Bosch’s Hungarian plants, in Miskolc, makes electric drives for such bikes and exports them to 70 different bicycle manufacturers around the world. When soldering the components for the latest generation of e-drives, nitrogen from Messer provides the necessary inert atmosphere.
