A couple of crazy Dutch kids took a plane to LA and brought with them a budget-friendly “omafiets” – an original grandma bike from Holland.
We bought their sample bikes (they have plenty of these back in Amsterdam), and we’re selling them for $380 apiece. They are about 50 cm (or 20″) and come with a Sturmey-Archer Kickback 2-speed rear wheel – when you hit the brakes, you switch gears too. It is pretty awesome once you get the hang of it, and a lot of fun to learn with a beverage in hand. The rest of the specifications you can read on the Amxdam web-site.
First come, first serve with these bikes. We only have two, and for all of you who’ve contacted us since we first opened looking for used Dutch bikes – this is it! These are real, lightly used, Dutch bikes. Turn Los Angeles into Los Amsterdam! Viva Oma Fiets!

Ooh, I hope one is still there Sunday when I come for Dim sum.
BTW, I will be bringing a guest who just arrived from the Netherlands.
We’ve definitely got enough bikes to cover you if they don’t have any.
