Pros & Cons
Pros & Cons
- Batavus Aerline lighting offers excellent visibility and safety.
- Lightweight aluminium frame ensures good manoeuvrability.
- Rollerbrakes provide effective and smooth braking performance, but above all they are very low-maintenance.
- The seatpost has no suspension, which can offer less comfort on very bumpy roads, but is sufficient in most urban situations.

Not the bike I expected.
I don't think I would have bought this bike had I been allowed a test ride outside. Cycling inside seemed like the best bike, but it runs very heavy in practice. I kick up a sweat; my 20-year-old city bike rides so much better

The city bike to put off electric cycling for a while
In my hilly neighbourhood, I am really overtaken by everyone because everyone has an electric bike. With my previous, heavy bike, this was toiling and sweating, now on the Batavus Fonk 7 I pedal uphill quietly and relaxed, proud to be cycling under my own power!

Lightweight city bike with minimal maintenance at a competitive price
Great bike, wonderfully light and the 7 gears are more than enough. Brakes work well and lighting also fine.

A great bike with very good service
Super fine bike that cycles nicely and light weight . The bike shifts fine. I can finally keep up with my daughter and husband when cycling again. The staff at the Utrecht location were very friendly and helpful. They took plenty of time for you. I cycle with pleasure again

A great bike with excellent service!
We recently bought the Batavus Fonk for our son who has to cycle 10 kilometres to secondary school every day. We are incredibly happy with this choice. First of all, the bike is remarkably light and beautifully designed. The modern and sleek design immediately struck a chord. The lighting is excellent, which is a big plus for safety, especially in the dark winter months. Another big advantage is that you can order the bike online and test it in shop. This gives peace of mind because you only pay if you really like the bike. We really liked this flexible service. In addition, we received excellent service in the shop. The staff took the time to inform us properly and answer our questions. Their customer-friendliness and expertise made the whole process very smooth and pleasant. All in all, the Batavus Fonk turned out to be the perfect choice for our son. We would definitely recommend this bike for schoolchildren who have to travel quite a distance every day.
