Does anyone know anything about these bikes? I have one but do not know the model, year built etc. I have frame number.

Hi Geoff
The National Autocycle and Cyclemotor Club library will almost certainly have written info on Batavus, if that helps. Contact alan@magic-wheelers.org.uk who will get back to you. If you're not familiar with the club, check out  
www.thebuzzingclub.co.uk. You would be able to put a request for info in their mag.
