Our range focuses on products that improve these journeys. We offer all the essential parts and accessories you and your customers need. For example, also the parts for maintenance and repair of VanMoof bikes. How and why did we start with parts for VanMoof bikes? When VanMoof went bankrupt, a huge demand arose among VanMoof cyclists as to where they could go for maintenance or repair of their bikes. However, because the bike has very specific parts that are not readily available everywhere, bike shops had to leave these customers out in the cold. That's where PENDLR wanted to help, with suitable parts, help and advice. A year later, VanMoof has made a relaunch and we give them heartfelt credit for that. Still, we are happy to share the offer we can make from PENDLR for VanMoof and other city bikes. Range of VanMoof parts Our range for VanMoof bikes consists not only of existing mechanical parts, but also of specially designed products. As a result, you can always find the right part for your customer. For example, we offer both an A-option close to the original and a B-option of better quality. Examples of our products include the custom-made Roland wheel, Tektro brake pads and discs, the Primax pushbutton holder that works perfectly with Tektro brake pads, and the black Innova tyre without reflectors. And for electrical problems, we collaborate with KWS Seuren, so you'll find a solution for that too. Stronger together. Here’s how we made it happen... In collaboration with experienced service points, we looked at the most common questions and defects on VanMoof bikes & together with our suppliers, we gathered the necessary parts accordingly. And for electronic support, we teamed up with KWS Seuren. During the rollout of this range, we collected feedback from our dealers & learned that besides being able to find suitable parts at all, their quick availability & delivery was very important. ''The availability and speed of delivery is the reason we buy these products from PENDLR.'' Euro Tweewielers Leiden (NL) But when we asked if there was a need for help generating publicity, it turned out there was absolutely no need, as the repair requests came in of their own accord and frequently. And although VanMoof has since relaunched, the demand for our parts remains high. So it's definitely worth checking out our range. ''We are already very busy, without giving extra publicity to it.'' Fevzi Scooters PENDLR: the one stop shop for all parts and accessories Our extensive range includes parts for VanMoof bikes, but also for other city bikes and forms of micromobility. So with these products, you will always have a suitable solution for your customers. Can we help you too? Become a PENDLR customer and you will find everything you need to keep city bikes moving.

Wiechel van Heerde has been the proud owner of Tweewielerhoek Reinier in Kampen since 2020. After working in the shop for 20 years, he took over the business. Over the past year, several aspects of the bike shop have been upgraded, including a complete overhaul of the workshop. Check out Tweewielerhoek Reinier's brand-new workshop setup and find out what Wiechel thinks of the new design! Wiechel van Heerde has been the proud owner of Tweewielerhoek Reinier in Kampen since 2020. After 20 years of working in the shop, he took the leap and became its owner. Over the past year, several updates have been made to the bike shop, including a complete overhaul of the workshop. Hi Wiechel, why was it time for a new workshop layout? "The workshop was outdated. The equipment was aging and needed replacing. The workbench itself was already 20 years old. The compressor was a 10-year-old machine and was placed on a wooden floor, so you can imagine the noise it made," Wiechel explains. What factors did you consider when choosing the new workshop? "First, you look at what appeals to you—that's very important to me. A PENDLR advisor provided recommendations and gave me confidence. Despite offers from other parties, I chose PENDLR because I've been doing business with them for 20 years—simple as that. I also really appreciate when my loyal customers keep coming back." "I feel happy when I walk into the workshop now. It’s truly neat, everything is beautifully organized, and it looks so professional!"What do you think of the end result? "I feel happy every time I walk into the workshop now. What I like most is how neat it is. It’s no longer a jumble of tools—everything is neatly organized in drawers. It looks so professional. We’re still getting used to putting everything back in its place, but in the long run, it saves time and makes tools much easier to find." What has the feedback been on the new workshop? "We’ve received a lot of positive reactions. Customers can see that we’re making upgrades. I think most of them are happy for us and feel that it looks great and very professional." You’ve also purchased a battery cabinet. How did that decision come about? "Safety was a key reason for getting a battery cabinet. Our shop is located in the city center, and we also have apartments above us. I also wanted a dedicated place for the batteries and chargers. Previously, the batteries were scattered around the shop. Modernizing the store is important to us, and meeting new safety standards is part of that—and the battery cabinet fits right in. I think it’s only a matter of time before insurers start requiring a battery cabinet in workshops." Curious about what’s possible for your workshop? Imagine a workshop that even inspires your messiest colleagues to stay organized. At PENDLR, we love helping you create a professional workspace tailored to your needs. From understanding your preferences and providing expert advice to delivering the perfect setup—we’re with you every step of the way. Does that sound good?
