Distinguishing features
This is a very unique and distinctive bike. It is a men's Dutch commuter bike; there are not a lot of them in the US. There is a white Hawaiian flower sticker on main part of frame, tire pump & holder on bottom of frame and water bottle holder. There is a Vetta odometer on the right handle bar, bell on left. The handle bars are unique "swing" bars meaning their angle and height can be adjusted for posture (a must for me since I have a lumbar fusion!). Pedals are System 3 Alloy with toe "cage." Tool pouch under seat, back cargo rack, front & rear lights. Front light has a small tire generator. Small leather patch on a crack near a bolt on the chain guard. Front and rear fenders, reflector sidewall strips on tires, presta valves. Attached pics are not of my actual bike but are of the same model and color.
