One feature on Dutch bikes that I WISH was available on affordable bikes in the USA is the enclosed drivetrain. IF the drivetrain is totally sealed, a chain can remain dirt and grit free, and the chain, the chain rings, and the cogs could last for many years. And, I would not have torn the leg on my favorite wool slacks last month.

But, it to "look like Lance" we Americans need uncovered chains. I just wish I had Lance's tech around to clean or replace my chain after every ride.
