Paripa is our own brand, we build it individually to customer requirements 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.

The Paripa Sport 8 is equipped with a Shimano Alfine 8-speed hub. This hub is only available with freewheel. It has a gear ratio of 307%. Shimano Alfine hubs offer high shift comfort. A smooth cadence, which allows comfortable driving over longer distances, is no problem. We recommend the following standard equipment after careful consideration:
