[...] Really? Compare with my genuine Dutch stadsportief from the Rolls- Royce of Dutch city bike makers, Gazelle, photo here (not the offroad bike at the top of the page, the city bike about halfway down the page): http://members.lycos.co.uk/fiultra/BICYCLE%20Bauhaus.html I think you mean sportfiet not sportief . And the proper word might be sportfiets but better check with someone who actually knows Dutch. GAzelle has a range 'Stad comfort' and 'stad sportief' ie 'city bloody heavy and staid', and city and bloody heavy, staid and jazzed up with some more crap. But that's only my opinion. the nice folks at Gazelle do quite well with people who disagree
