On the next page you will find a data form. With this form you can request information about your
vintage bicycle(s) by e-mail and contribute to the bicycle database at the same time. In
the form you are asked a number of questions about your bicycle, like the frame number,
wheel size etc. Please answer as many questions as possible. There you can also indicate
if you like to receive a comprehensive answer, including the year of construction of the
bicycle, which parts could be original etc. |

What is this database good for? It is
meant to provide a broad overview of the history of the (Dutch) bicycle industry by
containing detailled information about the vintage bicycles left over today. The more
people contribute to the database, the more information there is available. Do you like to
know more about the benefits of such a database? |
|
On this page the setup
of the bicycle database is shown, along with a sample record. (Sorry, no
English version yet.) |
|
If you want to find out in which year your
bicycle has been constructed, you can look for indications on your bike itself. There
might be a year stamped on a single part, e.g. on the rear hub shell. In the article dating a bicycle yourself you will find some helpful information.
If you manage to date your bicycle with this information, I would appreciate it if you
filled-in the data form anyway. By doing this, you will help others who inquire for
information from the database. (Sorry, no English version yet.) |

In the beginning, quite a big part
of the data stored in
the bicycle database was captured from this place
