The Bikes
BERGKÖNIG is for steel-framed bikes only. No brifters, no disc brakes, no nonsense.
Every bicycle is welcome at BERGKÖNIG Gstaad, as long as it has been made before 1990 (or is a replica using the relevant technology). And don't forget: every rider complements his or her bicycle with matching clothing!

Swiss Vintage Cycling Festival
50 Years
RADSPORT GERBER
We celebrate the big names and the wild stories of Swiss cycling. And an unparalleled variety of bicycle brands. Switzerland has given a lot to the cycling world. Some of the world's most beautiful mountain roads, many important riders who have achieved victories in all tours, Classics, World Championships and Olympics, and more than 700 bicycle brands, some of them building among the most beautiful bikes ever.
As one of the Highlights in 2021 we celebrate the 50th Anniverrsary of the big Swiss brand GERBER. Arnold Gerber has influenced the Swiss roadbike community of the 1970ies and 80ies like no other. There will be a high class exposition at Hotel Park Gstaad. AND: we reward the most beautiful GERBER bike in the peloton, selected by nobody less than Arnold Gerber himself.
