Paripa is our own brand, we build it individually tailored for you in Kreuzberg. The Paripa Sport series is based on two frame shapes: the Diamant frame and the Méral frame. It is designed as a fast city bike and for touring with light luggage.
For our Paripa N3 we offer 3-speed hubs from Shimano with freewheel hub. The Shimano Nexus hub has a gear ratio of 186%. Three gears are great for flat terrains like Berlin. The Paripa N3 accelerates like a rocket.
