A SPECIALIZED BRAND :
Buds is a French brand created in 2015 by Ludovic Gardarin. For more than 25 years, Ludovic Gardarin has been active in the bicycle sports press (big bike) and is responsible for KONA sales in France. This passionate cycling enthusiast, who is very involved in the world of cycling, realized that there were no "Bike bags and accessories" solutions that would enable you to protect and transport your bike simply but effectively, quickly and without spending too much money, for air travel or simply to avoid dirtying the car after competitions, taking the train anywhere in Europe etc.
Since then, numerous bike bags and accessories have been created 100% by our team, and thousands of Bike bags have been sold worldwide.
Often copied, we pride ourselves on always innovating to be the first to offer pragmatic solutions at the right price.
The following are born:
- The first bike transport bag without removing the rear wheel! (ROADBAG and MTBAG ORIGINAL and TRAVEL)
- The first bicycle transport bag entirely dedicated to train travel! (TRAINBAG range)
- The first 13 mm soft bike carrying case with integral shape-recovering padding (TRAVEL and PRO ranges)!
- The first soft bike carrying case with rigid base and offset wheels without removing the rear wheel: the RMTBAG PRO !
- The first independent "base support" bike accessory with angle to raise the derailleur and prevent the bike from touching the ground: Buds Support Universel!
- The first independent fork protection: Buds Fork Protect!
- The first soft, padded MTB handlebar protection: Buds Handlebar Protect!
- The first integral frame protection with 2 x 20 mm shape-recovering foam: Buds Maxi Frame Protect!
