The start-up fever is all over the country with one or the other popping up every single day, aiming for glory and success over a fortnight. There is an edge that startups have which focus on solving problems that the society faces. Easy commute in the urban areas has become problematic and no one can deny it. Isn’t it almost every day that you wish you had a personal commute for reasons galore? A Hyderabadi will well understand what it feels like to remain stalled in the car while the minute hand on the wrist watch just keeps going.
Tazzo Bikes concentrates on this troublesome area that major metro cities face all the time- Traffic. Hyderabad traffic can be paralyzing, especially during office hours. The aim of Tazzo Bikes is twofold; the first is to diminish the difficulties of the everyday commuter and the second is to satisfy the thrills of the ones who don’t own their own commute.
Co-founders: Priyam Saraswat , Shivangi Srivastava, Priyank Suthar and Vikrant GosainNow, it is not just another bike rental in the city. Tazzo Bikes is devised into being a more economic version of the rest of the bike rental models. It follows a no deposit policy, which is quite hard to believe but true. Other competitors in the market charge a large sum of money as a security deposit. The fact that Tazzo Bikes don’t, has turned many heads in the market in no time. This model is the brainchild of Priyam Saraswat (IIT Guwahati), who came up with the idea when faced by the hectic traffic scenes on his return to Hyderabad. From five bikes and scooters, the number has now ballooned up to a massive five-hundred in the cities of Bangalore and Hyderabad. With thirty-four bike stations across Hyderabad and ten in Bangalore, there is almost nowhere you cannot get a Tazzo Bike. Charges start from a cut-price of just Rs 4/km and are also inclusive of fuel. To put the cherry on top of the cake, they have a no-surge policy too. No wonder it has created a buzz in the city.
There is now no stopping to your sudden craving or urge for shopping. Let’s run you through the mechanism of this impressive commute service. The ‘Tazzo Bikes’ android application is available on Google Play. On downloading, you will only have to fill up a few basic requirements before starting with your bookings.
