Episode notes

“We’re creating a whole new market of active mobility.”

In this episode of Third Angle, we’re taking a trip to the French Alps to learn all about the future of one of the newest forms of transport - a visionary, chainless vehicle with an advanced pedaling system. Carlos Torres, Co-Founder and Head of Design at CIXI, Nicolas Ohlmann, Co-Founder and Chief Technical Officer and Fabien Ronzani, Engineer show us how the team is redefining active mobility and creating a new world where they want everyone to be physically active. They’re doing this through the use of their pedaling system, PERS and their exciting creation, Vigoz. 

Listen to explore how CIXI integrates innovation into every detail - from the workshop’s “theatrical” assembly process to the high-powered Vigoz, which amplifies human energy enabling riders to reach up to 120 km/h.
