The 2011/12 Zandvoort is a 3-speed made of Reynolds 520 steel and comes with a stock Brooks B15 Swallow saddle. The MSPR is $1,300.
Cooper Bikes tells us that although their bikes only have limited distribution in North America, they are planning a full launch next year.
The Zandvoort has a sleek look and it's made of quality steel. The stock Brooks saddle is definitely a draw. I wish it came with full coverage fenders, a chainguard, and handlebars with curves.
