This is one bike that's had a good beating with the ugly stick - the  Vanmoof three speed city bike.

It's now been updated to the m2 version. Slightly different colour, different chain guard, available in 7 speed and with hugely improved dynamo lights.

Each to their own I suppose. I think it looks fantastic - definitely on my want list.

I can see the sense in most of it, but what's with the rocket launcher for a top tube?

Magpies :-)

That holds the lights and cables to keep everything looking clean.

you could strap an awfully long pump to that bike

Richard, put on your green hat,
 J Houston Maupin had the right idea, now VANMOOF have given the platform.

eWe had one visit the bike workshop once they seemed a beautifully finished bike at lest they don't have a curved top tube that seems to be on many bikes presently.

Ugly is the new beautiful.......look at Lady Gaga.

It is clever design how the dynamo powered lights are integrated into that top tube.
I rode one of them suckers at super Elliott's, from memory there is a solar panel in top tube too.
Riding position was great, very upright for town and great rake on forks for city steering I thought!

A mate later bought one, has ridden in twice now in two years!

Umm, yeah - ugly..

Cut that top tube and it would be fine... but I guess that is the point - stand out. Rides ok? Nice.
