The Neutral Standard Interface of the Bicycle Industry

Veloconnect is a digital communication standard for direct and efficient data exchange between bicycle dealers and their business partners.

By using a uniform “language,” the exchange works regardless of which IT systems the parties involved use. This allows numerous business processes between bicycle and sports retailers, suppliers, and online service providers to be mapped. Direct system communication ensures greater efficiency and effectiveness on both sides. An overview of the supported processes can be found here.

Veloconnect was managed by VSF e. V. until 2025. Since then, DiBike has been responsible for further development and coordination – in close cooperation with relevant market players. This involvement ensures the neutrality and openness of the standard and prevents the enforcement of unilateral interests or data misuse.

Since its first implementations in 2006, Veloconnect has established itself as the industry standard and is now supported by over 120 suppliers and all common merchandise management systems in the bicycle trade (see Implementation).
