History of Kreidler

Alfred Kreidler began building 50cc twostrokes in 1950, having re-established his father's Stuttgart factory after war's end in 1945. The last real Kreidlers were built in 1983, although Garelli produced some mopeds in 1988 with a Kreidler badge, and a Dutchman was still producing small numbers of special order Floretts after 2000.

There is an excellent brief history of the marque at Maarten's Kreidler Club.

I am living in Crete and recently purchased an old property, which had an old Kreidler Motorcycle inside. Someone told me that it maybe worth restoring. Would you be interested if I sent you a photograph.
Thankyou for your help

Kreidler Van Veen electronic - Kroeber

We are a small group of motor enthusiasts from Slovenia which are still racing with 50cc oldtimer motors. We are searching for electronic (ignition...) for 50cc Kreidler VanVeen motor. The original electronic is from Kroeber

Because we are still active in racing with motorcycle, we need to get reserve electronic. We would appreciate any information about where we can get electronic or if possible give electric schematic (drawing), so we can make one our own. If you perhaps know, that maybe someone has the old ignition system which does not work anymore, then we could dismantle it and make a new copy . I am actually electrical engineer, but I am affraid to open the existing ignition system, because we have only one, and don't want to mess with that since we need it for racing.

Thank you in advance.
If you have any information or questions please contact me on my e-mail.

My name is Keene SEELEY, and I have many Kreidler Florett 50 cc motorbikes.  I also have lots of info. If I remember correctly, Van Veen was the Dutch importer for Kreidler in the 60's and 70's. Van Veen had a factory-backed race team, and developed highly successful 50cc racing Kreidlers (rotary inlet valve, water cooling, electronic ignition).
I'm always on the lookout for additional parts and information, so keep in touch.  --  Keene Seeley  --  kseeley at bluewin.ch

Hello
I have found a mint condition 70's Kreidler Flory, it is orange and the owner is asking 300$us for it. Should I invest in it or is it too expensive?  I would really appreciate your advice.
thank you  --  VINTAGESHIRT at aol

From Sheldon:  My French isn't all that good, but I believe this says:  I don't get the reference to "Van Veen" though as that is the name of the person who had the Kreidler site listed below, which appears to have gone away.

Hello
I am looking for a 50 Kreidler Van Veen (?), and would like that address or telephone number of anyone who can help me.
Thank you in advance,

Maarten's Kreidler Club- An incredible website with tons of information!!


I have read with interest the page on the Itom. I am the Editor and Press Secretary of the UK based Racing 50 Enthusiast Club.  We specialise in racing 50cc motorcycles of the Classic period from the mid 1950s to 1974. At present we can have on the start line ITOMs, Minarellis, Kreidlers, NSU, Garelli, Motobi etc. They either race competitively or Parade.

I have #1 1967 Mk VIII and a 1971 Mk IX Itom, a Spondon Minarelli 50cc racer and a 3speed hand change MOTOBI 50cc racer. All of these racers are undergoing preparation for the new season but when complete I will send photos and information. I have information on the ITOM models and would be happy to answer questions, knowledge and information allowing for readers of this page.

If any reader wishes to join the club (we have members in Canada, USA, Holland, France, Australia and Italy) please ask them to send me an email to confirm interest.
