We started our company exactly five years ago. That seems like a long time, but given the one and a half years in which we almost came to a standstill because of Covid-19, it feels like we have only just started. The plan was to rent out very high-quality carbon road bikes and deliver them to our customers at their holiday address. Why now add an electric road bike to our fleet?
Growth through service and more road bikes
Our company has grown enormously in the last two years, not least in service and quality. Thanks to personal feedback from our customers, whether or not through a review, we know exactly where our strengths lie. To guarantee our high standard we purchased a lot of new bikes over the past year: the Jan Janssen Sonic Disc Ultegra Di2 12 speed. And what a success that turned out to be.
Electric road bikes in our fleet
Some of our customers asked for electric road bikes, sometimes because of an injury or reduced fitness, and increasingly because our customers are getting older. That was decisive. Our regular customers sometimes need an electric bike.
Spanish bike manufacturer BH Bikes
Our regular supplier Jan Janssen in the Netherlands does not sell electric road bikes, so we looked for a good, preferably Spanish, alternative. We found it at BH Bikes in Vitoria in the Spanish Basque Country, who make several electric road bikes with a geometry that suits our needs.
The BH Core Race 1.2
The BH Core Race 1.2 is an electric road bike with a mix of carbon and aluminium. It is especially suitable for people who are less trained or want to ride with other riders. It has an 11/34 cassette with 12 speeds and a 50/34 crank, and a range of up to 165 kilometres. The service is the same as for all our bikes: delivered to the holiday address, and completely cleaned and technically maintained after each rental. The BH electric bike can be requested through our booking page.
