A Memorable Moment: The Handover in Raubling

Following a successful charity auction, the Artbike has officially found its home. Highest bidder Jörg Hassel was welcomed to the iko Store in Raubling on October 27, 2026, for the official presentation ceremony.

In attendance were artist Annette Werndl, corratec CEO Cielo Irlbacher—representing the corratec Charity Mission—and Tessa Irlbacher.

The meticulously crafted Life S e-bike was presented to Jörg Hassel in an intimate setting. With this handover, he acquired not only an extraordinary electric bicycle, but also a original piece of art with a powerful story.

A One-of-a-Kind Work of Art for a Worthy Cause

What began as a creative vision turned into a passionate mission: Together with artist Annette Werndl, corratec transformed the new Life S into an unmistakable custom artwork on two wheels.

Utilizing expressive abstract painting, Werndl infused energy, movement, and bold color directly onto the three-dimensional frame. Vibrant hues, dynamic shapes, and custom brushwork make this e-bike a true collector's piece.

From the outset, the project was driven by a higher purpose. Beyond turning heads, the Artbike was designed to make a real-world difference. To achieve this, the unique Life S was auctioned online to directly benefit the corratec Charity Mission.

Core Pillars of the Artbike Project

  • Art & Design Abstract expressionism featuring vibrant energy, movement, and dynamic artwork hand-painted on the corratec Life S frame.
  • Social Impact All proceeds from the online auction directly empower disadvantaged children and families in the Philippines.
  • Community Driven A strong partnership uniting artist, brand, and dedicated advocates behind the corratec Charity Mission.
Art That Inspires and Gives Back
With the Artbike project, corratec has shown that a bicycle can be so much more than just a means of transport. It can inspire people, bring art to life and, at the same time, fulfil a social responsibility.

The proceeds from the auction will go to the corratec Charity Mission and support its vital work for children and families in the Philippines through educational programmes, medical care and essential relief supplies.

A heartfelt thank you goes to Jörg Hassel for his commitment and support of the Charity Mission, to Annette Werndl for the unique artistic design, and to everyone who has accompanied and supported the project.

One bicycle. One work of art. One mission.
