In this episode of the TESTPILOT.bike Podcast, host Jens Staudt sits down with Leo Kokkonen, founder and chief designer of Pole Bicycles. Following a tumultuous period in the bike industry, Kokkonen returns to detail the brand's pivot from high-volume manufacturing to ultra-exclusive, bespoke bike building.
The conversation focuses on the debut of the Pole Hiisi, a revolutionary e-MTB platform machined from solid billet 7075-T6 aluminum, featuring modular travel options (152mm–200mm), bridge-less swingarm compliance tuning, and the high-torque, silent Maxon BikeDrive Air S motor.
