A customized Batavus Old Dutch, in red, just before it was picked up by its owner.
This 2009 Batavus Old Dutch came as a 1-speed from the factory in Heerenveen, Holland. Black is the most common color for a Dutch bike, but this is Southern California! We made sure to get bikes in as wide a variety of colors possible.
At a customer’s request, we disassembled the rear wheel and installed a 5-speed coaster brake hub on it. We also mounted a basket (using a locally made basket mount by our friend Stephen Campos of Steel Fabricated Arts), moving an alternative headlamp down to the front fork using a dynamo light clamp to hold it in place.

A chalk drawing, by Veronica Jargui, of a Nihola cargo trike featured this monht at Flying Pigeon LA.
Black Woman Sidekick has just finished tacking up the last charcoal bicycle sketch for this month’s exhibition, “The Still Lives of Bicycles” inside Flying Pigeon LA and a sister show at the Bike Oven that is being called “Surrealist Bike Stories”. Both shows will run until April 7, 2010.
These were created by neighbors and friends at the Bike Oven over the course of several days. The work of Veronica Jaregui, Brian Bonilla, Gillermo Guerra (our resident Under-10 artist), and several others is featured.
Since the opening for these shows is happening today, now is probably a good time to invite you out on the Spoke(n) Art Ride this Saturday, March 13 2010! We’re going to tour art galleries on bikes, then finish where we started (at the shop) and take in the art on the walls.
This month, the ride begins at the Flying Pigeon LA bike shop (3714 N. Figueroa St., Los Angeles, CA 90065) and Bike Oven (3706 N. Figueroa St., Los Angeles, CA 90065) at 7 p.m.
