OBicycleTouring Posted April 23, 2016 Posted April 23, 2016 Hello all, I have advertised, searched and still cannot find one of these fine bikes sold locally. Does it mean there is no single South African that has one to sell to me? Please help me if you can! Am 'dieing' to own at least one! Ok, the Bike is: 1. Batavus- E bike Or 2. Gazelle Easy Glider also an e bike. Please someone help me to own this, even if I have to import one. See photos (as advertised on various sites in Holland and on Markplats website).....
sierrrd Posted May 4, 2016 Posted May 4, 2016 I'm afraid you will have to be lucky and find someone in the Dutch community who has one. I can only imagine a hardcore fellow Dutchie who would put an e-bike like that in a shipping container.
lurkerza Posted May 4, 2016 Posted May 4, 2016 My wife owns a Batavus Torino, but not an E-bike, rather a very old 3 speed internal geared hub version with front and rear lights and a luggage rack on the back, a beautiful piece of kit as well! It needed some repairs done on the internal gears and I had to ask a mate who was going to Amsterdam to get me the parts I needed, so bear that in mind!

OBicycleTouring Posted May 4, 2016 Author Posted May 4, 2016 Hello Thanks for responding, unfortunately Am looking for a newer version. You can see these newer versions are nicely accrssorised. Regards Dominic
