Sachs is a German motorcycle and parts brand founded in 1886 in Nuremberg, Germany. Known for its two-stroke engines and lightweight motorcycles, Sachs became a major player in Europe’s post-war motorbike market. Its motorcycle division became SFM GmbH in 1995, producing models like the MadAss and XTC. Today, Sachs continues to make motorcycles, scooters, and e-bikes, while its automotive parts (like clutches and shocks) are produced by ZF Friedrichshafen AG.
