Participants of the electric bike trial in the province of Brabant were clearly enthusiastic upon conclusion of the trial. One in six of them ended up buying an electric bicycle afterwards.


Thanks to the “Try an E-Bike” initiative held in 2011, organisations near ’s-Hertogenbosch, Eindhoven, Tilburg, Breda or Helmond were able to offer trial home-to-work commuting by electric bicycle. About eleven hundred Brabant residents could as a result experience what it is like to go to work on an e-bike. A tally following the trial showed that the e-bike satisfied 84% of the expectations. Two thirds of the participants see it as a suitable transport vehicle for commuting. Participants were also stimulated to actually acquire an e-bike for commuting. After the trial, 16% did so and 35% considered doing so.
