About robikett

Hello, please allow me to introduce myself since I'm glad you're here.

The Founding Story
My name is Robert Musil, and I am the founder of Robikett. I formally established the company in early 2023, but the idea was born earlier, of course. We probably share a common passion, and that was my main reason for taking this step. As a consumer, one knows best their own needs. During a beautiful bike tour in the Carinthian mountains in Austria, my bike buddy lost his downtube protector, a continuous plastic part that was glued to the frame. To protect the open area from the bad weather and seal the adhesive joint, we applied a fabric tape to the spot when we arrived in the evening. That's when the idea was born to design and produce Frame-Guards for bicycles. "If everyone protects their smartphone immediately with a film, why shouldn't we do the same with our bikes?" Especially since they are not necessarily cheap, and we invest a lot in our hobby. By doing so, I ensure a certain value retention when selling the bike. Moreover, I can use it longer, and secondly, there is often a desire for individuality, and that's where the printed protective films come into play. As a father of three children, I can say that this point (when passing on to siblings) is even more important than the protection aspect.

Growing up in a family business (my father's printing company), I also learned early on the advantages of a professionally familial environment and longed for professional authenticity. So, I wanted to be closely involved in product development, to do what I enjoy, and to have "solved a problem" at the end of the chain.

Production and Vision
Now we are at the point where we are working hard and passionately on the products, constantly trying to expand our offerings. Everything is designed and produced in-house and tested first in the Austrian forests. ;-) Since everyone in the family and friends' circle contributes their part, comes up with ideas, or goes on a ride with me, it would be irresponsible to speak of "me," so generally, it's "us." Thank you very much at this point. :-) In the near future, many great designs will follow. Our main domain is cycling, but we also want to open up to other sports with similar needs. So stay tuned... ;-)

Thank you also, and do not hesitate to contact us with any questions.
