On the canal

This is a Kronan bike from Sweden parked on a canal in Delft. Nice front rack bolted to the frame, which is quite popular here. Keeps the load separated from the steering so the bike is much more manuverable. You'll see hipsters mounting these to old racing bikes. Not a good idea as you risk crushing the head tube with the force necessary to keep the rack from moving. Old Schwinn's, Raleigh's, etc., no problem.
