Despite being one of the most heavily funded ebike startups in the world, VanMoof had been making major losses on its ebikes for years.<\/p>\n<p data-block-id=\"19e2db52-f3f2-4ab4-a140-8167d73f30cc\">All startups struggle, especially those with big ambitions. Sometimes they go down for good, but other times they get a second chance.

He and his team had the tough task of saving a sinking ship \u2014 and they\u2019ve done a bloody good job so far. In less than a year, they\u2019ve managed to restart delivery of spare parts, opened dozens of third-party service centres, and resumed ebike sales.<\/p>\n<div class=\"inarticle-wrapper channel-cta\">\n<div class=\"ica-text\">\n<p class=\"ica-text__title\">TNW Conference, June 20-21 &#8211; 85% tickets SOLD OUT<\/p>\n<p>Cease all the networking opportunities: roundtables, masterclasses, tech tours, 1:1s&#8230; Last chance to book before we run out!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-block-id=\"94f60690-996f-419f-a8ce-81b42292c2b0\">Eliott will be pedalling into TNW Conference on Thursday, June 20, for an exclusive interview with yours truly on the Vision Stage.
