The ideal all-rounder

Furthermore, the strong lighting, which works on a hub dynamo, is an absolute plus. All these parts are virtually maintenance free, because the vulnerable parts are well concealed. A big advantage is the closed chain guard, which makes this bike maintenance friendly. This makes it ideal for every ride.

Participate safely in traffic
The new Vizi lighting makes your city bike a lot safer in traffic. Because it runs on a hub dynamo, your city bike will always be visible. The lighting is equipped with a stand light that stays on for as long as you stand still. The rear light is nicely integrated in the luggage carrier and the headlight is placed a bit further on the mudguard. Because of this placement you will not easily damage the lighting. The fact that this bike is equipped with strong hydraulic disc brakes makes this city bike even safer. These are very powerful and require little maintenance, which makes them very reliable. This is very nice both in the city and during a good bike tour.

The Batavus Finez is a very pleasant all-round city bike, where safe cycling in the city comes first.
