As far as we know, the FinnG model is the first bicycle pennant with a telescopic rod. Conventional bicycle pennants consist of a heavy and elastic fiberglass rod. This results in the pendulum effect when driving, in which the flag swings to the left and right. To reduce this pendulum effect, short pennants of 1.5m and less are commonly produced. However, this means that the flag is no longer visible behind parked cars. We offer the perfect solution with a 1.6 m long fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) telescopic rod.

The telescope material is light and yet stable and thus prevents the pendulum effect described. The telescopic rod can be extended and retracted like a fishing rod. This means that the children's bike with pennant can be easily transported in the car.
-
The telescopic rod is 160 cm long when extended, just 62 cm when pushed together. Together with the extremely solid aluminum bracket, the FinnG model has a total weight of just 100 g and is therefore 50% lighter than our 4-piece pennants. This avoids additional weight on the bike, which is particularly important for children's bikes
How do I attach a bike pennant?
-
The telescopic pole comes with an alluminum bracket. Most bicycles can be attached to the wheel hub. That depends on whether the axle bolt has an extra 6mm of play in the thread. If this is not possible, the attachment can alternatively be attached to a different thread on the frame. Here, for example, the luggage rack thread next to the hub screw is a good idea. This means that the pennant can be attached to almost all bicycles, wheels, bicycle trailers, recumbent bikes or wheelchairs.
-
1. The supplied rubber strip is glued to the side of the bracket that faces the frame.
2. No additional screws are required for mounting on the wheel hub. After loosening the hub screw, the attachment is pushed onto the hub and then fixed with the screw. Make sure that the bicycle chain is slightly tensioned again.
-
An unusual frame shape or a luggage rack mount close to the wheel axle can mean that a conventional mounting plate cannot be attached. The bracket's innovative angled shape allows it to be mounted on virtually any frame type.
