2023 Linus Dutchi 3i Bike

A Classic Dutch City Bike with Function and Elegance

Elegant, Feminine & Independant

The upright riding position makes it very comfortable for everyday use, and the low step-through frame allows for easy on and off. If there ever was a frame designed for trips to the flower market or picking up fresh baked bread, this is it.

In The Details

• Paint

  We apply a second layer of protective clear coat to the paint. It's more work for us but it makes the paint stronger and more resilient for you. Two coats are better than one.

  

• Leather Wrapped Grips

  Hand-stitched genuine leather grips naturally absorb sweat and soften over time. If you ever had your skin against vinyl on a hot summer's day, you'll understand why we can't compromise on genuine leather.

  

• Hardware

  Wherever possible, we've chosen to make all the nuts, bolts, and washers on our bikes out of stainless steel. Stainless is much more resistant to rust than your typical chrome-plated hardware. This small detail extends the life of your bike and helps to preserve its good looks.

  

• Headset

  The flat surface of a headset is a place where water often settles and over time rust develops. That's why we chose to make our sets out of aluminum so they don't rust.

  

• Internal Gears

  This bike is internally geared, which means you have the benefit of multiple gears without a cumbersome derailleur. For city riding, internal gears have many advantages. They are extremely reliable, require very little maintenance, you can shift without pedaling, and they're very easy to use.

  

• Reflective Tire Wall

  This bike has reflective tire walls, greatly enhancing your visibility at night. You can see quite clearly that without the reflective tire wall, a bike is nearly invisible on a dark street.

  

• Sealed Bearings

  This bike has sealed bearings in the front hub. The advantages of sealed bearings over loose bearings are less friction, no maintenance, and more resistance to grit, grime, and weather, making for smooth rides and extending the life of the bike.

  

• Spokes

  We use 13 Gauge stainless steel spokes on the rear wheel because they are thicker and stronger than the standard 14 Gauge. Stronger spokes make stronger wheels, which is great when carrying extra weight like groceries or toddlers over bumpy city streets.

  

DUTCHI 3 HEIGHT RECOMMENDATIONS:

• Small: 4'10" - 5'1" / 147.3cm - 160.0cm
• Medium: 5'2" - 5'10" / 157.4cm - 177.8cm

FRAME SIZES:

• Small: 41cm/16" - 26" wheel
• Medium: 45.5cm/18" - 700C wheel

STANDOVER HEIGHT: 56cm

EFFECTIVE TOP TUBE LENGTH:

*Note: Some riders may be a little outside these height range recommendations but prefer the feel of a larger or smaller size. Stand over height measurement is not as important as how the bike geometry feels while it is being ridden. As long as the rider can reach the ground while sitting on the saddle, even if it's just their toes, this size will be compatible with their height
