2:20 Hmmm so the average taxi ride is 3000Pds? WHY YOU NO MATHS?

[@mauharley]

What's the logic with having the rider at the back? At a set of lights or stop sign, their vision of what is coming from the side street is diminished. And imagine having to ride up a hill from a standing start pushing 150kg. This idea is ridiculous.

[@denizyilmaz5381]

You have no idea, did you never hear of Cargo bikes? Urban Arrows get bought for 6kEUR and R+M can be up to and above 9kEUR. They are replacing cars and are often ebikes, thus the pushing is not so much of a problem. I actually see here a lot of potential, these guys might not be the best to do it. This idea is gold and within the next 5 years this is going to be a big thing through European capitals.

Tej was right in that no-one would use the service in the winter / on cold or wet days.....if there was come sort of canopy that went over the passengers that may help but to hand out ponchos is a disastrous move.

[@araskubilay4291]

The funny thing is here in the Netherlands (where they sourced it) all such bikes can be equipped with rain tent / canopy attachments, which they somehow managed to completely miss.

[@hollyro4665]

You’d make a fortune on drunk people though 😂

[@EnJayMelbourne]

OMG, Touker is an extremely capable businessman. I've done a bit of research on him. Not only is he kind enough to offer free office space in the London CBD which is worth a small fortune but he also takes good care of even his smallest business interests. His pin point precision when it comes to doing deals is absolutely incredible. You can't teach that. That comes naturally & with experience. No wonder he's done so well & has remained so humble.

[@SenorSalubrious]

They think Uber couldn't find cycling instructors. Imagine being that dumb/dishonest and still getting an offer.

[@hollyro4665]

If they can find people who can drive they can find people who can ride a bike 🤣. Don’t primary schools often do like 4 weeks cycling teaching with kids now.

[@edwindsouza8816]

No-one seems to have picked up on the Maths - a 2 mile journey costs £10, but would take 15 mins - an example being Marble Arch to Covent Garden. That's £40 per hour, or £320 per 8 hour day, not taking into consideration traffic, more complex routes, or downtime. The range would cover 10 journeys before the battery would need to be recharged, or more likely replaced, at every 4 hours at continuous use. A more realistic figure would be around £200 revenue per day, not including the winter months, or when it's either cold /wet when people would prefer to use covered transport options - to quote £500-£600 seems exceptionally optimistic.

Or is watching Debra's reactions in a construction based pitch to see if what the person said rings true with someone more knowledgeable than he in that field.

[@davidmellish3295]

Completely cocky,he even said to Deborah " I can understand why you'd think that ' when she said others can do this. He's so cocky,he seriously thinks they're the only people who can do this. Then he thinks they'll be worth £60 million, beyond delusional 😅

It’s a great service, however the pitch was really bad and they should worked on it more. The evaluation right now was way over the top. At most the business itself was work £200,000 at most and the offer given was actually a good one.
