Sustainability. Movement. self-determination. Or in short: "It's you, only faster". the first major campaign by the Californian bicycle manufacturer Specialized in Germany.
Even if e-bikes will not be the only answer to the question of sustainable mobility - at least they make an important contribution. And anyone who still thinks of bulky two-wheelers with electric motors is even dramatically wrong: they not only look very good, but above all they are a lot of fun.
Reason enough for the first major campaign by the Californian bicycle manufacturer Specialized in Germany.
The heroes of the campaign are the turbo e-bikes, which increase your own (leg) strength up to 4 times.
They stand for a new form of mobility that will bring us a step closer to the vision of a car-free city. And at the same time for what is currently perhaps the most exciting way to move through German urbanity.
Sustainability. Movement. self-determination. Or in short: "It's you, only faster".
Malte Homeyer, Marketing Manager Germanic Markets: “Our campaign is very bold and direct. It expresses what we stand for: the joy of movement. The urge to conquer your own city. We believe: Our bikes make a good contribution to this.”
In addition to social media ads, video ads and display banners, the core of the campaign is a megaposter flight in Hamburg, Munich, Düsseldorf, Dortmund, Essen, Cologne, Leipzig and Stuttgart.
