this style has it's own Dutch name: omafiets (‘grandma bike’). It is great for flatter trips &/or shopping:
the working (keyed) "O" wheel lock is called: Ringsloten
~unisex~
working generator powered lights, & wheel lock:
includes kickstand which supports rear (elevates rear wheel)
practical, comfortable:
single foot actuated (coaster) brake in rear hub
note (please see last photo) small tear in vinyl chainguard cover/case
also, several of the small hooks attaching to the bunji-cord hooks on the skirt guard are broken'/missing/ too short
this is likely easily remedied with small hooks fashioned from paper clips, which I will attempt to do before the auction's end time
sold as is: no return
fits ~5'3" - 5'10"
