  • 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.

  • Sorry pascalo, meant to say single sided pedals! :) SPD one side, flat on the other so you can wear either cycling or casual footwear:

    They're not great as a flat pedal as the surface isn't very grippy (I ended up filing them to create sharp edges and make more teeth) and they bias the SPD side (good for me!) which is a little annoying at times when in non cycling footwear but means my wife can ride it too as she doesn't do clipless.
