August Stukenbrok, born in Polle on the Weser in 1867, came to Einbeck in 1888 and built a bicycle factory there, which sold directly to end customers by mail order. August Stukenbrok Einbeck (ASTE) is a pioneer in the mail order business in Germany and is known for its future-oriented marketing. The brand name "Deutschland-Fahrrad" with the slogan "Mein Feld ist die Welt" became the epitome of solid bicycles that are affordable for everyone. The dispatch of bicycles and accessories was also supplemented by a wide range of consumer goods.
