Pletscher is a renowned Swiss family business that has been dedicated to high-quality aluminum die castings since its inception in 1919. In 2004, the company shifted its focus exclusively to bicycle parts, and their carriers, licensed to ESGE, became available at Joad Sportz Supplies in 2005. Pletscher prides itself on producing its own molds, ensuring the precision and quality synonymous with Swiss manufacturing. Known for their durability, Pletscher products come with a three-year guarantee, making them a top choice for bicycle kickstands, carriers, hardware, and small parts—all 100% imported from Switzerland.
