With over 86,000 bikes stolen in 2024, a proper lock is not a luxury. Most Dutch insurers require at least an ART-2 rated lock for e-bikes. We tested the best bike locks on security, weight, and value.
ABUS
The ABUS Granit X-Plus 540 is the best U-lock for Dutch e-bike owners who need ART-3 for their insurance.
Kryptonite
The Kryptonite New York Fahgettaboudit Mini is mechanically the safest U-lock a consumer can buy.
ABUS
The ABUS Bordo Granit 6000 is the best all-rounder for Dutch e-bike owners who want an ART-2 lock without the bulk of a chain.
Nearly half of all bikes sold in the Netherlands are now electric. We compare premium e-bikes (Gazelle, Batavus, QWIC) with affordable models on Amazon.nl (ENGWE, ESKUTE) on motor performance, battery range, and value.
Gazelle
The Gazelle Chamonix T10 HMS is the safe, complete pick for Dutch commuters who want a dealer-supported Bosch e-bike with no compromises on equipment.
QWIC
The QWIC Premium MN8 Belt is the most refined and maintenance-free commuter e-bike in this roundup, ideal for Randstad commuters with a budget above €3,000.
Kalkhoff
The Kalkhoff Endeavour 5.B Move+ is the ultimate long-range touring pick in this test, ideal for serious riders planning big distances and hills.
