MULLER Introduced Across Japan
After studying metalworking and welding at university, and learning design and engineering from her architect father, Yoshiko established the design philosophy that would define MULLER.
She began designing performance bicycles using long-lasting metals such as titanium, stainless steel, manganese-molybdenum steel, and chromoly steel.
Combining the natural beauty of metal with thoughtful engineering, every bicycle was designed to help riders travel farther, faster, and more comfortably—regardless of physical strength.
This philosophy became one of the defining characteristics of MULLER and continues to shape every bicycle today.
