If Ties and Taco Carlier brothers had founded their business eighty years ago, perhaps the world would have been a little better, but we would have missed one of the great works of Italian neorealism cinema. Because these Dutch claim to have invented a system for bicycles that makes them immune to theft.
The brothers Carlier, like many in Amsterdam, their hometown, are lovers of bicycles. In fact, both believe that cycling makes you be more creative. “For some years, I stopped doing the usual route from home to work because my apartment was ten meters from the office, Taco Carlier account when talking about his new creation. I stopped cycling to go to work and left part of my happiness and productivity. So, after three years, I packed all my things and moved to a new house on the outskirts of Amsterdam “. So the experience rewarding, say, riding his new power bicycle, the Electrified S, equipped with a security system through a mobile app that makes it virtually invulnerable to theft.
Some have already been quick to compare the new machine VANMOOF with smart cars Tesla, in the sense that it represents a real revolution for this mode of transport. The Electrified S, say the Carlier, is so light that does not seem like a powerful electric bicycle but its quiet motor makes it suitable for any type of urban terrain (even those with steep slopes or in which you have to face the wind ). The autonomy of the Electrified S is another key advantage, since it allows shooting up to 120km on a single charge.
