In 2020, we saw a growth of cycling. At V\u00e9logik, we want to help sustain this development and ensure this momentum lasts over time. Maintenance is essential to support this trend because a bike that rides is good, but a bikes that rides well is better !<\/strong> Indeed, regular maintenance allows users to ride safely and sustainably for their daily commute. Specific expertise is all the more needed with new models : connected bikes, electric bikes, cargo bikes…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

V\u00e9logik, pioneer and historical expert in bike maintenance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The company was created in 2008 by Franck Br\u00e9dy, a cycling fanatic and mountain bike rider. He first worked as a property manager, before turning his interest to the cycling market when he realised that there were very few, if any, companies catering to businesses and cities. In 2008, he founded V\u00e9logik to offer businesses and cities a large range of cycling services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2018 marked a strategic turning point in V\u00e9logik\u2019s history. Franck Br\u00e9dy decided to shift his focus to growing the company\u2019s BtoB bike maintenance service<\/strong>. V\u00e9logik thus became a pioneer in the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It went on to win several key contracts : maintenance of the V\u00e9lib <\/strong>self-service bikes in Paris for Smovengo, the V\u00e9ligo Location<\/strong> bikes for IDF Mobilit\u00e9s and Fluow, the self-service bikes in<\/strong> Bordeaux <\/strong>with Cykl\u00e9o…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

V\u00e9logik\u2019s pioneering status and capacity to innovate put it in a position to develop additional business lines that would help structure the entire maintenance sector, from professional training programmes to digital tools for managing operations.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smart and optimized maintenance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

V\u00e9logik, as a pioneer and expert in the field, wants to structure and professionalize the entire maintenance sector by providing digital tools designed specifically for the bicycle industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the last several years, the group has developed specialist business tools used in house to manage and maintain bike fleets. V\u00e9logik has now decided to share its expertise by launching a suite of SaaS tools for bike maintenance.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

These tools have been designed by and for fleet managers, empowering them to implement efficient maintenance and tracking of the fleet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • V\u00e9locare <\/strong>is the foundation of these innovations. This maintenance platform is made for interventions management and to track several thousand bikes and all other equipment. This app displays the real-time status of a fleet in order to optimise fleet management.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • V\u00e9loclik <\/strong>is a tool to manage bike fleets and bike or equipment rental. This online platform is designed for cities and transport bodies who want to provide a more professional service and offer users an easy-to-use booking service.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    The use of data for a predictive maintenance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    These four tools collect data, and centralising information about a bike to create a bike data hub also helps improve the whole maintenance workflow, provides insights into usage and makes it possible to implement predictive maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The data collected includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Number of bikes available for rental, the rental duration and a fleet\u2019s availability<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Characteristics of each bike<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Maintenance operations (requests, duration, type)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      This data must be managed and leveraged to improve fleets, reduce costs for operators and improve the return on investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The data collected makes it possible to identify recurring manufacturer flaws, act before the problem arises and inform the manufacturer. With smart bikes, some operations could even be performed remotely, such as disabling the electric battery when a bike is stolen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      These smart tools transform the bike maintenance process and facilitate the lives of both the bike mechanic and the bike fleet manager.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The future of bike maintenance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      \n

      Cycling\u2019s growing popularity shows no signs of stopping and it will continue to grow in coming years, as will the number of shared bike fleets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      V\u00e9logik\u2019s goal is to use its over thirteen years of expertise in France and Europe to create softwares that address the challenges faced by fleet operators and repairers.<\/p>\n<\/div>

      \"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

      A 2020 study carried out in partnership with the FUB (french federation of bicycle users) found that out of 3,700 bike repairers in France, only 5% of them had a digital tool for managing maintenance work, and that 61% would like one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The creation of the V\u00e9logik Digital business unit in early 2021 demonstrates the company\u2019s desire to become a key player in the sector\u2019s digital transformation.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
