Gazelle Launches Fall E-Bike Lineup Emphasizing Comfort - CleanTechnica
Gazelle has introduced its fall e-bike lineup focused on comfort and inclusivity, featuring three main models designed for different rider needs. The Easyflow C7 targets riders seeking maximum comfort and confidence, including shorter, older, or returning cyclists. It features an extra-wide low step-through frame, pedal-forward geometry allowing feet flat on the ground when stopped, 24-inch wheels, and an upright riding position for smooth, stable rides.

TILER, a Dutch clean-tech startup, has developed the TILER Compact, a wireless e-bike charger designed to simplify charging by starting automatically when the bike is parked on a slim charging pad called the Tile. This system uses induction charging via a specially designed kickstand adapter, eliminating the need for cables and plugs. It offers charging speeds comparable to wired chargers and features a waterproof IP67 rating, allowing use in any weather. The Compact is compatible with about 78% of current e-bike systems, including major brands like Bosch and Shimano, and comes in versions suited for regular bikes and heavier cargo models. Its scalability allows up to 24 Tiles to operate from a single 230V power source, making it ideal for offices, mobility hubs, and delivery fleets. The technology has been proven in real-world conditions, with over 300,000 kilometers charged using earlier versions and more than 200 units currently tested across Europe.

VanMoof, the Dutch e-bike startup known for its premium, minimalist designs featuring integrated lights, batteries, and motors, has relaunched two years after filing for bankruptcy in July 2023. The company’s previous downfall was largely attributed to its heavy reliance on custom parts, which led to supply constraints and an underdeveloped repair network, leaving customers stranded with broken bikes and damaging trust. After being acquired by Lavoie, a McLaren Applied division, VanMoof leveraged Formula 1 expertise to redesign problematic components using performance data, improving reliability while partnering with large manufacturers to ensure quality and parts availability. Notably, the company shifted to co-designing batteries with Panasonic, moving away from fully in-house battery development. A key focus for VanMoof’s comeback is its revamped servicing infrastructure. The company has established a network of 250 repair centers and 130 sales partners across select European markets, supported by a tech suite for diagnostics, parts ordering, and warranty management, as well as online
