That is positively adorable! I love the bag and the basket – they really add a special touch. Have you seen the Electra Amsterdam Classic 3i? They have little paintings on them and come in yellow, white, and red (pictures: http://thoroughlymoderntilly.wordpress.com/2009/02/06/sunshinedust/). I haven’t ridden a bike in who knows how long but that bike and this one you just posted makes me want one in a big way!
Dannebrog is the name of the Danish flag…. and it looks a little like the Swiss flag, so what could be more perfect? Apart from a Swiss named bicycle! ;)
I have one that looks almost the same, but in a different color… ride it everyday! But hey, I live i bicycle mekka! ;)
Oh, and the Velorbis-bikes are amazing. I want a Scrap Deluxe for gents, but it’s a bit expensive (seeing that I live in Copenhagen and don’t need a car, it could still be considered a bargain).
If not the whole bike, the bags can definitely be yours– they’re made by a Dutch company called Basil, and they have a whole bunch of amazing styles! I’m in love, too…
The Velorbis bikes are very nice, but if cost is an issue, I would also take a look at the Electras that Tilly suggested. I like the entire Amsterdam series, but especially the “Madonna” and “Tree of Life” models which have Alexander Girad illustrations on the fender skirts.
A Dutch bike named and coloured after the Danish national flag? Yes, please! It looks wonderful.

I’ve been thinking of striping my bike with the company logo :) This may be an idea for you too if you get this lovely bike!

a very Danish comment: ‘Danebrog’ is the name of the Danish flag.

You should have a look on http://www.copenhagencyclechic.com/ and http://www.copenhagenize.com – I think you’d be a great ambassador for the New York crowd of wearing less lycra and more regular clothes when biking.
Remember – it’s all about style over speed!

I almost bought bags similar to that for my bicycle, but in my neighborhood they would surely be stolen.
very cute though!

I want to ride this, in my little countryside town. I would be the only one to have this. This bike is so girly.
