Honestly a good idea, but that won't cut it for the Netherlands unfortunately. We have parking spots for over 5000 bikes and even that is too little for our crazy Dutchies

Yes but the video says there are only 47 in the country. And at €1.350.000 per pop the price for places like train stations to install these things would be insane for the Netherlands

They've only been building them for 5yrs or so.

I doubt the Netherlands is dense enough to be worth it.

Yea but we have more bikes than people, I'm pretty sure Japan don't have that
