No need to search for a parking space, no harmful emissions, no noise: Compared to the car, the bicycle offers a whole range of advantages. The bicycle is of great importance, particularly with regard to the change in traffic patterns and urban mobility. For example, the Federal Environment Agency's comparison of modes of transport shows that commuters can save around 300 kg of CO2 emissions per year for a commute of around 5 km to work by cycling instead of driving. Together with walking, cycling is therefore the most climate-friendly mode of transport.
