The BFR (Brake Freewheel Reverse) system features a unique and patented mechanism between the chain and the rear axle, specifically developed for our BERG go-karts. This system allows the user to pedal, keep the pedals still while driving, use a back-pedal brake, and after braking, pedal backwards. This unique combination of features is only found on BERG go-karts and is ideal for quickly switching between forward and backward pedaling and braking.

You can choose from four different BFR drive systems:

• BFR: Standard without gears (XL/XXL frame*)
• BFR 3: BFR + 3 gears (XL frame)
• E-BFR: BFR + electric drive (XXL frame*)
• E-BFR-3: BFR + electric drive + 3 gears (XXL frame*)

*The XXL frame offers eight seating positions instead of six on the XL frame and is therefore suitable for individuals up to 210 cm in height.

BERG go-karts are tested enormously extensively during development. We test internally that the go-karts are safe to use and comply with all regulations, that the parts are chemically free of toxic materials, are ergonomically correct and that the quality of the product is worthy of BERG. After the development of the go-kart, external testing agencies will check whether they agree with our findings. We market the products only if this is the case. All our go-karts are therefore CE certified and our smallest go-karts are also TUV certified.

All BERG go-karts have a Cradle to Cradle certificate. This means we know exactly where each component comes from, what materials have been used and that these materials are not toxic or polluting. This way we can be sure that the product is not harmful to your child and that we are not putting toxic materials into the environment.

Need to replace a go-kart component? For every component apart from frames, we offer spare parts. When a tire goes flat, the chain snaps or some other part breaks, it can all be fixed through a spare part. This also applies to parts that are damaged or lost. This naturally ensures that a BERG go-kart can be used for an enormously long time, which makes BERG go-karts very durable.

Just like a real car, your cool BERG Pedal Go-kart also needs a periodic technical inspection. Ask an adult to help you. You are the mechanic! Ready for the periodic technical inspection? 

Electric go-karts use pedal assistance, allowing you to easily accelerate and drive fast, with speeds up to 16 km/h. This option is exclusively available on our XXL go-karts and operates via an intelligent system that manages the electric drive. The sturdy frame adds to the safety.

You can choose from four modes: ECO, TOUR, SPORT, and TURBO. The ECO mode provides gentle assistance for longer battery life, while the sportier modes offer more speed and challenge but drain the battery faster. Whether you want to drive slow or fast, the choice is yours!

Key specifications:

• 24V removable battery that provides at least 2 hours of carefree driving.
• The motor delivers 250W.
• Equipped with an LCD display including speedometer, distance meter, and battery capacity.
• Ability to charge your phone via the USB port under the display so you are always reachable.
• Equipped with coaster brake, hand brake, and parking brake.
