Life is Good, Enjoy the Ride

description

Simple Bikes was born in 2011 in the city of Amsterdam, where we live and work, out of a desire to spread the Dutch cycling culture around the world. We saw the rising popularity of Dutch style bikes across the globe, but found they were often just pale imitations of the bikes that have ridden around over here for over a 100 years. Sure, they resembled the real deal from far, but when we looked closely they seemed to lack some of the things that truly define a Dutch bike. Things like the all important upright ride and comfort geometry, the classic frame designs and the minute attention to detail that makes a Dutch bike so unique, compelling and enjoyable to ride.

attention to detail that makes

a Dutch bike so unique, compel

ling and enjoyable to ride.

While we prided ourselves on our

authentic heritage, we also de

cided to design these bikes to refl

ect a truly International character,

packaged around a Dutch heart

and soul.

Simple stands for pure uncluttered design letting

the bike be the star. Impeccably finished and spec

ified to the highest standard possible, we don’t cut

corners on quality or compromise on components,

that’s just not our style. Instead we bring old world

craftmanship and love of the product to the table,

so you can enjoy the Simple moments that make

life special.

We hope you enjoy the ride as much as we do.

Amsterdam | the iconic Dutch bike. Known as an “Oma” or granny bike, this model is a quintessential part of Dutch life and culture. Ridden by both men and women, it’s the most Simple of bikes that embodies the heart and soul of Amsterdam living.

The classic lugged frame and upright position lets you enjoy the ride as you coast down to your favorite corner “bruine cafe”.

St.Tropez | influenced by the French style of the 50’s,combining elegance with speed, this bike yearns for “la vie douce” on a breezy Cote d’Azur road. Sun, sand, a bottle of chilled rose at a sea-side boulevard cafe, Simple living at its best.

Sputnik N3MAN & LADY

Sputnik | when we first saw this bike being built up, it just reminded us of a Soviet era satellite, with the spacey handbrushed frame and the metallic painted fenders, calling it the Sputnik just seemed like the right thing to do. This bikes defines retro style commuting, and if we had to pick a city that best reflects it, that’s Simple, we would choose Berlin, one of the coolest places on earth.

Boyz and Girls S1ngle

Boyz and Girlz | Our kids wanted their own Simple rides too, but it had to be completely different to the usual cutesy bikes out there. So we decided to downsize the adult bikes and turn them into little big bikes. They look so good with the colored side-wall tires and seventies graphics, that now we’re jealous, can we have one in a bigger size too ?

SteamRoller S2MAN

SteamRoller S2 | Our signature bike, a fat urban ride, or is it phat.This is our own take on the currenttrend of superlite hand weldedand lugged cromoly married to chromoly balloon tires giving it an edgy and tires distinctive look. Why do we call it the Steamroller ? Simple, because it just rolls and rolls and rolls.
