Correction. The Netherlands have been a cycling nation since almost a century and a half ago and not since the seventies of last century. In 1896 the first bike path led to the railway station of Nuenen, a town in the south of the country and a couple of years later the first steps towards a nation wide cycle infrastructure were set.

Its lacking a rear rack , but in my opinion the best bike for urban commutes is a full suspension mountainbike . More durable and " hop off sidewalk" proof . It often goes wrong at that point . And these oma fietsen dont like things like cobblestones very much .a full suspension mtb doesnt care .im not even talking about taking hills . And yeah , i live in the Netherlands.

Full suspension mountainbike to do your groceries, lmao What about rain ? No mudguards What about locking your bike ? Dont forget to bring your heavy chainlock everytime. (No wrapping around your seatpost bc damage to your bike, I know from experience) What about (not) fitting your fat tyres in the bike stand ? What about no standard ? Whatabout costs of maintanance ? Pretty expensive bikes means expensive parts to replace What abt your bike is more likely to be stolen ? Etc, etc . . . Things you dont have to worry about when you own a omafiets

This guy doesn´t really know what an omafiets is. Apart from the fact that the video mostly just shows a bunch of random bikes, he regularly gives close-ups of types that only somewhat resemble one. Also, few have gears, let alone eight. And it's not "ommafiets". But uh... C+ for effort?
@MonsieurRaki 6 ай бұрын
We had a bicycle culture long before the 70's. Also oma is not pronounced like comma, but like the o in 'home' or 'omen'.. so oh-mah, not ommah. Most bicycles are neutral in color, but they can come in all kinds of colors. The oma-fiets doesn't have gears, but other bicycles can have gears (mostly 3 and sometimes more if it's an e-bicycle).

Just got a gazelle step through antilope primeur in cali. Best bike I’ve ever and will ever have. Durable too . Went over a half foot bump at 20 mph and only have a slight bend in the wheels. But heavy as your mom. The hills are a workout for sure . I’ll have this baby forever!

these days they call it a oma (grandma) bike. But originaly, in the 20 and 30's it was a priest bike. Priest were wearing long dresses. Just a historical fact 🙂

What you say is accurate, but the stock footage shown is not relevant to the subject. In between a few images of Dutch bikes are stock footage of the bent forward straight arm bikes that are the opposite.

I have adapted a 80's mtb to be a single speed omafiet. This is a rugged but still fairly light frame. I found a large saddle with no springs, and a taller stem so that my swallowtail handlebars are above the height of the seat. I have a chainguard built into the chainring. This bike is light enough for my hilly town without too much strain.

I have an HVZ Ukraine (soviet urban bike from 1987), and thanks to its upright position its more comfortable for daily rides than most of my newer bikes. If your urban "dutch" bike has gears too, you're golden - you can use it for long trips too if you need to. You dont need some fancy road or touring bike, unless you're planning to race someone on the way.

The gears on Dutch spikes are for canal bridges, not hills. Also, 3 to 4 miles a day is not a long trip.

Sorry, but your info on taking your bike into the train is incorrect. During weekdays you can take your bike on the train between 09.00 - 16.00 hours and in the evening between 18.30 - 06.30 hours. During the weekend, holidays, july and august the time limitations do not apply. Do not forget to buy a additional train ticket for your bike (Fietsdal kaart in dutch). It costs under 8 Euros and the distance your travel is irrelevant. So to travel to the next station or all the way from Groningen to Maastricht costs the same. Folding bikes can be taken on the train for free.

Half truth - road bikes are only preferable for dedicated cyclists, who ride a bike every day and are in tip top shape. If you're a casual who only rides from time to time, you're gonna suffer riding a road bike - no matter if its long, or short distance. That hunched agressive position can waste as much energy, as the wind resistance on an upright bike. And besides, you need to wear a spandex to take full advantage of a road bike. (and perfect roads too)
@shannontrainer5857 Жыл бұрын
@@meganoobbg3387 That hunched agressive position is more biomechanically efficient, you're more powerful glute muscles instead of just your calves and hamstrings. On upright Dutch bike, you'll have to rely on lower leg muscles alone instead of your full lower body. A middle ground will be a non-upright hybrid or a non-upright touring bike, but you're against those as well.

@@shannontrainer5857 Efficient indeed, but like i said for people in shape - regular people get tired by just sitting in that position. You're balancing your weight forward which exhausts your hands, also neck, shoulders and back. On a long trip, road bike vs urban bike is a preference trade honestly - speed vs comfort. The compromise would be the touring bike whose whole purpouse is long trips. TBH though, if you're in shape or not it doesn't matter - a person in good shape can go fast in both. There's this guy from Ruse, called "the Diesel" - this guy runs like 13 miles daily, just as a regular routine. lol His buddy cyclist invited him on a cycling trip once and he humiliated them - used a cheap heavy bike, and rolled the pedals like a sewing machine. They had a hard time keeping up, despite being cyclist racers and on road bikes :D So in the end, what matters is the preference, and how fast you go depends mostly on your shape.
