Braking
Front and rear steel calliper V-brakes positioned under the frame, giving the bike a nice streamlined look.
Aluminium brake levers.
Tyres
700x42 balloon-type tyres smooth out lumps and bumps in the road and keep you more comfortable as you ride while also providing better rolling.
The Schrader valves make the tyres easier to inflate, even at a garage.
Ideal tyre pressure is between 3.5 and 4 bar.
STAND
Side-mounted bike stand that keeps the bike stable when stopped even if carrying a load on the racks.
Compatible Accessories
The certified pannier rack can hold 27 kg and can fit a pannier-mounted child seat or any of our ELOPS bags.
The frame has been drilled so you can attach a bottle cage or folding lock to the seat tube. The back of the frame is drilled with mount holes for attaching a Ring Lock type bike lock (available as an accessory).
The handlebar is compatible with your 500 12L basket.
Compatible with a child bike tow (attached to the rear wheel axle).
Equipment
Rear pannier rack, rim dynamo powered lights, front/rear mudguards, side-mounted bike stand, chainguard.
Use restrictions
Not suitable for off-road use. As this Dutch bike has very wide handlebars, take care when riding along narrow passages indoors or outdoors.
Care tips
To prevent punctures and to get the most out of your bike, check the tyre pressure every fortnight when you're using the bike daily, or before each ride if you only use it occasionally. Degrease and lubricate the chain as soon as dirt begins to accumulate. Wash the frame with soapy water; do not use a high-pressure water jet.
Storage/transport tips
Store your bike in a dry, cool place. If riding near the sea, clean your bike regularly to protect it from salt damage.
Transporting the step-through frame bike on a boot bike rack may require an adapter bar.
