The bikes are pedal-assist electric bikes, which means that the harder you pedal the more you will be assisted. An integrated GPS and lock means that you can find a bike near you, and go for a ride.
“The centre of Brussels can be challenging to navigate smoothly,” says Nicholas Van de Loock, General Manager of JUMP Belgium. “With the integration of JUMP in our current range, we can offer solutions to ease commuting and help users in the search for alternative and sustainable transport,” he added.
Marking the release on his Twitter, Pascal Smet, the Brussels Minister for Mobility, shared this photo, saying: “more information soon”.
