Create your own Advent wreath
Christmas is approaching quickly and you still don't have an idea for this year's Advent wreath?
Then our upcycling idea is just the thing! A former tricycle rim that once served you on your tricycle for adults can be wonderfully transformed into an Advent wreath.
To get started, you'll need a disused bicycle rim, spray paint, four candle holders including matching candles, scissors, craft wire and a hot glue gun. You will also need fir branches and Christmas decorations of your choice.
This is how it's done:
First, clean the bicycle rim and spray it with the desired colour.
If the rim is rusty, you can lightly sand it down before painting. Allow the paint to dry thoroughly.
Once the bicycle rim is sufficiently dry, use string or wire to attach the fir branches along the outer edge of the rim.
You can now personalise your Advent wreath according to your preferences. Use a hot glue gun to attach small decorative elements.
Finally, securely attach the candle holders to your wreath and place your candles on them. Please make sure that the candle holders are securely attached!
With that upcycling idea you can prove that wear and tear items of your electric tricycle have more than one life.
The pfautec team wishes you lots of fun crafting and a wonderful Advent season.

FAQ
How do you differentiate yourself from cheaper providers?
We have a quality management system according to DIN EN ISO 9001:2000 and the production of the special vehicles is carried out strictly according to legal requirements. Extensive product tests by independent bodies and an in-house roller test stand also ensure safety. In addition, we place great emphasis on sustainability and our in-house quality standards, including
- In-house production, assembly and distribution
- More than 20 years of experience in the production of special bicycle and tricycles
- "Made in Germany" – no foreign imports
- Extremely robust models, some even up to 160 kg
- A diverse product range
- Competent specialist trade partners (Europe-wide)
- An innovative company with a long tradition, where inclusion is a priority
Why don't you offer your products in stores or relevant chains?
For a takeaway product like a DVD or bedding, that can work. However, our bikes are products that require explanation and we would like to give you the best possible advice. In the interest of our customers, we therefore remain
specialist trade-oriented.
Do you also offer models that can be driven exclusively with electric drive?
Yes we do. For this purpose, a TÜV approval with operating permit is requested for the vehicle. This vehicle may then only be operated with an appropriate driving licence and a valid insurance number plate.
