Your next car is an e-bike. Thorsten and Paddy in conversation with the LN (Lübecker Nachrichten)

LN: Your next car is an e-bike. This is the motto of your store; A bit provocative, isn't it?

Paddy: Before, but now? The fact is that more and more people see it that way.

Thorsten: And switch from the car to the bike or e-bike! The cost of a car is so incredibly high and the benefits are getting smaller and smaller. I'm not allowed to drive here, I'm not allowed to park there, I'm stuck in traffic, I'm stressed. Not even starting with the environment. It took a long time, but there is now a lot to suggest that people have finished their coffee and are buying an e-bike.

Paddy: Exactly, and so that it is just as stress-free as actually riding a bike, ideally in the i:SY premium store. Because the e-bike that is supposed to replace your car has to be very good, comfortable and practical. That's where we come in, because with us you'll find three things: a mega product, a special shopping experience and real sustainability.

Mega product?

Thorsten. Exactly. We offer e-bikes from i:SY. These are these e-bikes with the small tires and i:SY is the pioneer, the original. Often imitated, but not even remotely achieved, that's what we stand for. The quality is absolutely top.

​Special shopping experience?

Paddy: Shopping these days is often tiring. And buying an e-bike doesn't make it any easier. We do this a little differently. Our store visitors are our guests and we really care about them. And they notice that.

Thorsten: And the guests often drive home with an i:SY. This brings us to sustainability: riding an e-bike protects the environment. like all e-bikes, so does the i:SY. But the i:SY can do more, it puts a lasting smile on your face, even after the hundredth trip. So the combination makes you happy.

But this happiness comes at a cost, i:SY bikes are not cheap.

Paddy: I ​​think it's relative. If I calculate the cost of an i:SY instead of five-figure amounts for a car, it is very cheap. First in the purchase and then in the maintenance.

Thorsten: But it's still true, i:SY e-bikes are premium products and cost accordingly. It won't be cheaper again either.

Paddy: It's even better that there is job bike leasing . The tax office basically covers half of the costs. It's worth it and can be set up in three minutes. Just ask us or have a look on the website. We also have a leasing calculator so you can quickly check what an i:SY would cost per month.
