The story of Vinyl began in 2019. During a trip to Valencia with our previous brand, Analog, the spark for a new venture was ignited. We wanted to break away from manufacturing in China, bring production back to the Czech Republic, and create the most advanced scooter wheels ever made. We knew the journey would be long and challenging, but nothing could have prepared us for the next three years.

At first, our plan was to have a third party manufacture the wheels while we focused on building the brand, sales, and marketing. However, it quickly became apparent that this approach wasn’t working—either the samples didn’t meet our standards, or managing suppliers was too troublesome. After a solid 12 months of trial and error, we decided to take the leap and build our own workshop.

Two years of developing our equipment, learning the ins and outs of urethanes, and refining every step of the process have led us to today, where we proudly offer the next generation of wheels. Nearly every element of our production has been rethought to improve the feel of the final product, and when combined with our self-developed formula, the result is truly something special.
