If you can't get enough of GDR two-wheelers like Simson & Co at Christmas, it's worth taking a look online. There you can buy Christmas tree baubles made from real flashing lights from the cult mopeds. And they have proved to be a surprisingly big seller, as one of the sellers Jan Hofmann (37) says.
The Thuringia native has been offering upcycled furniture made from original moped parts in an online store since this year. The Christmas tree baubles made from the indicators were added in November. Together with a housing from the 3D printer and an electric tea light, they give the traditional fir tree a nostalgic glow.
