History

Tunturi's history began in 1922. The foundations of the Tunturi brand began when brothers Aarne and Eero Harkke set up a small bike shop, Pyöräkellari Oy, in Turku, Finland. The name Tunturi comes from the Finnish word for a fell. Bike repairs were the shop's main focus at first, and then gradually they added some small-scale production, manufacturing Tunturi branded bicycles. The brand was very successful and within a few years the small shop was exchanged for a factory. By the 1950s the Tunturi brand was the domestic market leader in mopeds.

Utilising technology and expertise gained from bicycle production, Tunturi expanded into fitness equipment development. In the 1970s, Tunturi became recognized internationally as a producer of fitness equipment.

In the 1990s, a strategic decision was made to focus on the production of Tunturi fitness products and Tunturi bicycles. This decision was important for the further development of the brand. Tunturi is now a well-known brand in Scandinavian countries and Tunturi fitness products are sold in over 40 countries worldwide.

Tunturi is now located in Almere (near Amsterdam, The Netherlands) and owned by parent company Accell Group.

gollark: I don't. I just made a convenient thing to graph the probability of rolling each number a while ago.
gollark: How much of it, anyway?
gollark: Not sure that needs a ping...
gollark: I mean, they are newish features, but I'm not sure they're interesting enough to be worth an entirely new purchase vs KSP 1, with its mods.
gollark: This KSP 2 looks quite like existing KSP with better graphics (well, that's the trailer, not necessarily ingame footage) and more parts for colonies and stuff.
