The vig dutch brands today: gazelle, batavus and koga miyata make rubisch bicyles. All frames are from china and put quicky together in a factory without any imagination. Also most bikes have front suspension and there is a heavy trend for electrical bikes here. You can pick up a bike second hand but the Dutch leave there bikes outside night and day do not care about maintenance. You can image how a bike looks after 3 years. I can recommend a handmade bike "Het Nieuwe Werck", a local bikeshop at the westerstraat in Amsterdam. Nice guy, good product. http://www.hetnieuwewerck.nl/producten.html I´ve one for 4 years with childseat at the back, heavy steel chainring and steel cargo unit at the front. Never lets me down. It is a SS which I suspect weights about 90 Lbs. I can not pick it up, too heavy. You do not want to crash into my bike, you won´t survive, it stops for nothing.
