I bought it because I liked how it looks. It's ok to ride too, weighing only slightly more than Portugal. Needs a bit of tlc.

Looks mad comfy. I like a coaster brake. Great bike for shopping and short trips

Yep, 100% For longer trips I have other bikes, but they're all single speed or fixed gear. I'm a simple man, so I'm into simple things and dislike mechanical complexity of derailleurs and such. To be honest I'm not sure that even freewheel is such a great invention... ;P

Spoken like a person who lives somewhere flat.

Well not completely flat, we have some decent hills, but granted they're not mountains.
