Business bikes fitted with professional corporate branding
Providing business bikes with corporate branding can be done through various methods such as vinyl decals, wrapping, engraving or custom paintwork. The choice depends on your budget, desired look and durability requirements. Professional corporate branding on bicycles increases brand visibility and creates a professional look while being transported around town.
At STOER Bikes from Aalsmeer, we understand the importance of brand visibility for business users. That's why we work with local partners like Van Riemsdijk Reklame for professional customization of our electric fatbikes and cargo bikes. Our heavy duty aluminum frames are rust free and perfect for permanent branding that lasts for years.

What branding methods are available to STOER Bikes?
For business STOER Bikes branding, there are four main methods available: vinyl decals, wrapping, engraving and custom paint jobs. Vinyl decals offer the most flexibility and are the most cost-effective for most businesses. For larger quantities of STOER bikes, we recommend contacting us for custom solutions.
Vinyl decals are the most popular choice because they are easy to apply to the smooth aluminum frame of STOER Bikes and relatively inexpensive. You can order them in different sizes and colors that perfectly match your corporate identity, and they usually last 3-5 years. The advantage is that you can replace them without damaging the bike, which is ideal for lease constructions.
Wrapping means covering the whole bike or large parts of it with a special film. This gives a very professional look and offers a lot of room for creativity. The foil also protects the original paint of your STOER bike from the weather. The disadvantage is that wrapping is more expensive and requires more skill for a beautiful result.
Engraving works well on STOER Bikes' aluminum parts and gives an elegant, permanent look. However, it is limited to simple logos and text, and you cannot change it. For companies making long-term investments in their fleets, this can be an interesting option.
Custom paintwork offers the most possibilities for unique designs in your full corporate identity. Your STOER bike gets a completely new color with your corporate identity integrated into the paint itself. For larger orders, we can even incorporate this into production. Please contact us for options with larger quantities.
Joeri's tip: Branding as an investment, not a cost
Many business owners see branding as an added expense, but we at STOER Bikes see it differently. An electric cargo bike like the CargoX Business is a moving billboard that passes thousands of people every day. Do the math: a static billboard in the city will cost you €500-1000 per month. A CargoX with professional branding is a one-time investment of €5,495 plus several hundred euros for branding, and you get functional transportation with it too. That bike works for you as mobile advertising every hour it's on the street. We have clients who have calculated that their branded CargoX generates more brand visibility than €10,000 in online advertising. Plus, you can deduct the entire investment for tax purposes through KIA and MIA schemes. Now that's smart marketing.
The best locations for company logos on STOER Bikes
The best locations for company logos on STOER electric fatbikes and cargo bikes are the main frame, CargoX bucket and panniers because they are the most visible while riding. The heavy duty aluminum frame offers the greatest visibility and is therefore the most important place for your main logo. In addition, the rust-free aluminum protects your branding from corrosion.
On the main frame of the UrbanX or CityX it is best to place your logo on the top tube or seat tube frame. These areas are easily visible from the side and usually stay clean while riding thanks to the thoughtful design with integrated cable routing. Avoid the underside of the frame because it gets dirty quickly.
For the STOER CargoX cargo bike, the 100×70 cm EPP cargo box offers tremendous potential for corporate branding. This is at eye level of pedestrians and other road users, ideal for maximum visibility. The optional corporate lid provides additional branding surface and protects your cargo at the same time. This makes the CargoX perfect for delivery services, mobile services and marketing purposes.
If you STOER bikes with bags or accessories, these are perfect spots for extra branding. The buddy seat on the UrbanX and CityX provides space for smaller logos. Just be careful not to make the branding too busy - a maximum of three locations will ensure that your main logo remains the largest and most noticeable element.

Cost of professional branding for STOER Bikes
Professional STOER Bikes branding costs between €50 and €500 per bike, depending on the method and complexity chosen. Vinyl decals are cheapest from €50-150 per bike, while custom paintwork can cost up to €500 or more. For larger quantities of STOER bikes, we offer special corporate rates through our customizing partners.
For vinyl decals on an UrbanX or CityX you usually pay between €50-150 per bike. This depends on the number of stickers, the size and whether you need special colors to match your corporate identity. Reflective stickers cost a little more but improve visibility in the dark, providing an added safety benefit.
Wrapping a complete STOER bike costs between €200-400. The price depends on how much of the bike you want wrapped and how complex the design is. For the CargoX cargo bike with the large EPP cargo box, you should count on €300-500 for complete wrapping including the box, but this gives maximum visibility.
Engraving on STOER Bikes' aluminum parts costs about €75-200 per bike, depending on the amount of text and complexity of the logo. Simple text is cheaper than detailed logos. This is a permanent solution that works well for companies making long-term investments.
Custom paintwork for a complete STOER bike is the most expensive with prices starting at €300-500 per bike. For larger orders (10+ bikes) we can handle this in production, which is more cost efficient. Please contact us for custom options and business rates.
Don't forget to factor in design costs. A professional design usually costs €100-300, but you can use this for multiple bikes. STOER Bikes works with local partners such as Van Riemsdijk Reklame and mPower Digital who can help you with professional design and execution.
Getting branding to go along with STOER Bikes maintenance
Company branding on STOER electric bikes lasts longer by choosing quality materials, regular maintenance and weather protection. The rust-free heavy duty aluminum frame of all STOER models provides a perfect surface for long-term branding. High quality vinyl and professional application are the key factors.
Always choose automotive-grade vinyl or cast vinyl instead of cheap calendered vinyl. These materials are more flexible, adhere better to STOER Bikes' aluminum frame and last 5-7 years instead of 2-3 years. They cost a little more but save you long-term replacement costs, especially with a fleet of multiple bikes.
Have the branding professionally applied by our partners or a skilled specialist. Expert installation ensures that no air bubbles form and that the edges are securely attached to the smooth surfaces of STOER Bikes. Poorly applied stickers soon begin to come off at the corners.
Protect your burned STOER bike from extreme weather by storing it indoors whenever possible. UV rays from the sun are vinyl decals' biggest enemy and cause colors to fade. A bike rack or shelter helps tremendously. STOER Bikes' Gates CDX belt drive system also doesn't need grease or oil, so your branding stays cleaner.
Clean your STOER bike regularly with mild soap and water. Aggressive cleaners can damage the branding. Do not use a high-pressure sprayer directly on stickers because it may loosen the edges. Check monthly for damage to the branding and replace damaged parts promptly.
Schedule replacement of vinyl branding after 4-5 years, even if it still looks good. Adhesion weakens over time. With lease structures, you can renew branding at each cycle, so your fleet always looks professional.
STOER Bikes: professional business mobility with perfect branding
Business bike branding is an effective way to make your company visible while transporting you around town. By choosing the right method, strategically placed and properly maintained, you'll get years of brand visibility out of your investment.

The STOER CargoX Business is ideally suited for corporate branding with its large EPP cargo box (100×70 cm) and optional lid. Perfect for delivery services, mobile services and as a mobile billboard. The UrbanX and CityX offer sleek surfaces on the aluminum frame for professional branding.
All STOER models are available through purchase or lease constructions, where branding can be included in the contract. In addition, you can take advantage of tax benefits such as the Small Scale Investment Allowance (KIA) and Environmental Investment Allowance (MIA), making your investment in branded business bikes even more attractive.

Can I apply vinyl decals to my STOER Bikes myself?
Although it is possible to apply vinyl decals yourself to STOER Bikes' smooth aluminum frame, we recommend professional mounting for best results. Self-assembly can lead to air bubbles, crooked logos and premature edge loosening. For a single bike you can try, but for multiple STOER bikes, professional help through our customizing partners is more cost-effective and ensures uniform appearance.
What happens to my bike's warranty if I apply branding?
Professionally applied vinyl decals and wrapping do not affect STOER Bikes' 5-year frame warranty and 2-year engine and battery warranty because they do not damage the original aluminum frame. Engraving and custom paintwork may have warranty implications, however, because they are permanent modifications. Always contact us first to discuss which branding methods best fit your warranty requirements.
How do I keep my company logo from fading on my STOER bike?
Choose UV-resistant materials such as cast vinyl with a special UV coating that can withstand Dutch weather conditions. Whenever possible, store your STOER bikes indoors or under a shelter. STOER Bikes' rust-free aluminum frame provides a stable surface that doesn't corrode, keeping your branding beautiful longer. For bikes that spend a lot of time outside, consider lighter colors that are less likely to fade than darker colors.
Can I combine different branding methods on my STOER bike?
Yes, combining different methods can be very effective on STOER Bikes. For example, a large vinyl logo on the main frame of an UrbanX combined with wrapping on the CargoX cargo box. Or engraved contact information on aluminum parts combined with vinyl decals on the frame. Just be sure to keep the style consistent and avoid too many different elements that make the look unsettling.
What should I do if branding gets damaged during use?
Replace damaged stickers as soon as possible to maintain a professional appearance. Always keep a few spare stickers for emergency repairs. You can temporarily repair small cracks with clear tape, but plan for a full replacement. Lease structures from STOER Bikes allow you to include branding renewal in the contract. A damaged brand look can create a negative impression with customers, so timely maintenance is essential.
How do I ensure uniform branding on all my STOER business bikes?
Create clear branding guidelines with exact dimensions, colors (RAL codes) and placements for each logo. Have all STOER bikes branded by the same supplier to avoid color differences - we work with local partners such as Van Riemsdijk Reklame for consistent quality. Use a stencil or measuring template for consistent placement on the aluminum frame and check each bike before using it. For larger orders, we can incorporate this into production.
Is temporary branding possible for campaigns or events?
Yes, for temporary campaigns you can use removable vinyl that is easily removed from the smooth aluminum frame of STOER Bikes without leaving residue. This is ideal for seasonal campaigns, events or temporary partnerships. The CargoX with its large cargo box is perfect for changing campaigns because you can quickly change different branding options. Do plan in advance when you want to replace the temporary branding and make sure it fits your existing corporate identity.
