Synopsis

Edit

KKR and Teslin, an investment fund, agreed to acquire Accell Group, a bicycle company, from Teslin Capital, an investment management firm, for $1.8bn. "Accell Group's transport and mobility solutions have been a thematic investment focus for KKR for some time, and we believe that the bicycle sector and e-bikes in particular will play an increasingly important role in dealing with some of the major challenges the world is facing today, whether it concerns climate change, urban mobility and connected transport or personal health. The operating environment for biking is increasingly demanding and complex from a consumer experience, supply chain and digital capability perspective. As a global investor, we will deploy our resources to support Accell Group in realizing its full potential as a global industry leader and sustainable innovator,” Tim Franks, KKR Partner.
