Kroone Liefting was (or still is perhaps) a quite large bike shop and had both Batavus and Gazelle. Possibly loads of other brands, too.
They were a typical Batavus shop. Very Batavus minded.
They also bought large quantities (regular orders, but also dead stock, inventory of bankrupt dealers, previous team bikes) at special occasions. I think Batavus, and maybe others as well used, KL as a kind of outlet.
The sticker on the frame is very commin in The Netherlands. 99.9% of the dealers does that, if not 100%.
They do it with bikes they sell in a normal way, but also bikes that are used by sponsored teams.
It also common that, in case a racing club or team makes a deal with a bike brand, that the deal goes via an IBD or LBS.
Convenient for the delivery, assembly, and other dealers cannot complain that the factory delivers bikes directly to racers or teams without interference of anofficial dealer.
So, basically, yours can by anything.
Post your bike. Maybe the model and colours clear something up.
