Cool! Enjoy the Douze. Always makes me smile every time I ride it. Our kid loves it and on occasions I end up giving other kids lifts to/from nursery and is all they do it laugh and giggle as we cruise along.
I'm lucky my wife is the same height as me so the saddle is at a reasonable height and have also fitted dual sided pedals so I can use my mtb shoes to help power along and get up hills easier.
Enjoy!!! :)

Thanks. I am sure I will. The Bakfiets on loan was good already, but the Douze will feel like flying in comparison.
Good call for the dual sided pedals ... Might actually be a reason for me to investigate Crank bros instead of Speedplay frogs, which seem to get more and more difficult to obtain cleats and spares for.

The very same demo model was up for sale with a nice discount. Just paid. Will have the bike very soon, soft bag, bench and tarp will be shipped from Melbourne next week. For now forgoing the full canopy. Might get that when winter strikes.
All that's left is a 400 seat post and I'm good to go. XL might fit me better, like this there's a remote chance to have my wife ride it though.
