Hi, it's Jan from Velomobile World. Last week in a video ( • Major changes at Velom... ) I said that we have some big changes ahead. That video was already made a couple of weeks ago and we haven't stopped moving forward. It has maybe something to do with the age, last year I became ... We invite you to watch the video and discover all the details!

Seeing how you have been evolving the Bülk I’m hardly surprised. Being successful in business is making the right decisions.

Ik begrijp dat jullie vooral de QV niet meer willen maken, omdat die minder eenvoudig is. Dit is echter één van best verkopende velomobielen en dan ga je juist die uit het programma gooien??? Vreemd, het heeft dus niets met aantallen te maken. Maar waarom dan ook stoppen met de Snoek?? Ook dit is één van de best verkopende velomobielen. Je zou bijna vermoeden dat het hier gaat om €€€€ Van de Bülk en de Milan hebben jullie volgens mij de licentie en dan wordt daar waarschijnlijk meer aan verdiend. Is dit nou gewoon een (on)handige manier om van je concurrent af te komen??? Dat verhaal over focussen op een paar modellen is sowieso vreemd met al die 9-modellen.

Er zijn dingen die ik niet kan vertellen. Die zijn tussen Velomobileworld en Velomobiel. Er is geen ruzie maar ook niet alle details kunnen gedeeld worden. Daarom kan ik niet ingaan op je vragen. Vriendelijke groet Jan

yeah after the humiliating race on Dike to Enkhuizen we saw how much more faster the snoek L is and how much more better netherlandish people velomobiles are that made the german designers very angry.

that's your interpration. I am Dutch as well

@thenight-frog2543 9 күн бұрын

That is really sad. The Snoeks were very exciting velomobiles. But maybe another company starting to also make the best velomobiles in the world will help you. (Competition is supposed to be good for the market.) So far it is been very easy. Any really fast reliable and light velomobile has been built by you.

@VelomobileWorld 9 күн бұрын

Thanks for the compliments. I agree the Snoek is a good velomobile. We need to focus only on some things in order the things we do become better and better. I and the team had the focus spread to thin and it is not funny to keep to much balls up for to long. The pleasure of building velomobiles are dissapearing if you do that to long. That's why we took this decision

Associer la fiabilité et la légèreté est d’accord ! la simplicité . Mais encore ?!. Pas évident. Surtout comme le QV quatre vélo qui as ses 10 ans . Peu de défauts. Très bonne tenue de route et confortable. Les Quest de formidables Vm . Bon rebond et maturité dans vos conceptions qui déjà étaient correctes. Plus de résistance dans des axes de roues, roulements plus fiable… Et puis Sauf les premiers Snoek où la fougue était à fond 😉.

To be honest, I don't speak France and google translate does not do a good job in this case.

As a QV owner I am sorry that you will no longer be making them, but I do understand. When you have to much work to do, either standards slip, you expand (if you are able to), but that carries the risk of work reducing and having too bigger workforce, or you 'Manage' your workload to a manageable level. Something has to go . . . . . . My own line of work has the same core issue: To much to do, not enough bodies to do it. Wages have gone up, income has not gone up at the same pace, so we have fewer people doing more work. As a result, standards have really slipped. No right answers here, just "Least Worst Answers."

@VelomobileWorld 7 күн бұрын

I get where you're coming from as a QV owner. But expanding to have a bigger workforce, which costs more and is a hassle to manage, isn't always great. During COVID, we had two shifts and almost 50 employees. It was a huge challenge, and I couldn't maintain the standards I wanted over the long term. We aim for a company culture that mixes quality and fun. To deliver the quality we want and enjoy our work, we had to make some changes.

@VelomobileWorld 7 күн бұрын

why not? I say in the video that we will concentrate on alpha en bulk models

@100toeface 9 күн бұрын

That is really too bad because I got an Alpha 7, which was unrideable when I got it and took 6 months to regear it (in addition I received it with a gearset that was different than what I specifically requested) and make it able to be ridden without the chain falling off and jamming constantly and had to purchase two new wheels because I didn't know how to properly remove them, which caused the nuts to be stripped. Then I bought a Snoek, and it was perfect, about 10x better than the Alpha 7 in every aspect, fit my body perfectly, removable bottom so I can use feet to reverse instead of wheelchair mode which doesn't work with a hood, adjustable seat for different rider heights, way faster, reliable (the only thing I have had to do in 18 months is shorten the chain).

@VelomobileWorld 8 күн бұрын

Well the snoek is not stopped. We only stop to produce it. And if a Snoek fits you better I am happy to hear. I am curious by which dealer you bought the A7

Inderdaad. Vreemd verhaal. Fenn en intercitybikes komen ook regelmatig met nieuwe modellen. Ik wens jullie veel succes en geluk. Ik hoop echt dat het jullie lukt om efficiënter (en goedkoper?) uitstekende velomobielen te (blijven) maken. Ik hoop dat jullie meer rust en ruimte voor andere dingen dan werk vinden.
