MEMO BOARD PERFECT FOR THE ZUIDAS WOMAN! Cycling to work every day through fair weather or foul, appointments to keep, kids to pick up, drinks after work... Sound familiar? The quintessential multitasking Dutch superwoman was the inspiration for VANMOOF’s new Q series ultra-sensible lightweight bike. No fuss, durable and classy to boot. The Q series is based on the traditional ‘granny bike’, beloved for its postureperfect riding position and its classic look. With its modern design and all the latest VANMOOF innovations, the Q series is a class apart from other ladies’ bikes. This Queen features bright lamps to ensure good night-time visibility and enough storage space to trade in your stilettos for comfy sneakers after a night out.
