Dorien and her SUGG
“I spent an about an hour in the shop, did a test ride and was sold on the spot. This was it!”
My SUGG makes the everyday joyful
I’m a teacher at CVO Brussels, so I go to different locations and community centers for my classes. A typical day means riding to one of those centers, teaching, and riding home again. Honestly, riding around Brussels is a joy now.
“I now have a secondhand SUGG, which came with a little basket on the back. I use it for groceries sometimes, super practical!”
It checks all the cycling wishlist boxes
It’s just really smooth. I can get up hills so easily. The compact frame helps you use your strength more efficiently when climbing. It’s also lightweight, not a heavy bike at all. And super agile, which is useful in Brussels traffic when you need to react quickly.
The perfect commute companion
Every now and then, I take the train to Ghent, and the SUGG is just so easy to bring along. It’s light, it folds in one click, and it’s no hassle to carry on stairs. I keep it one floor up at home, and even that’s not a problem.
A lovely community that looks out for each other
When another SUGG rider passes by, there’s always a friendly nod or wave, even if we don’t know each other. It feels like a small, joyful community.
My first SUGG unfortunately got stolen. That was a sad moment. But what stood out was how the SUGG community rallied. People helped me try to track it down. Later, a SUGG seller messaged me about a secondhand bike. Now I’m so glad I have one again.
“I can say it without a doubt: once you go SUGG, you can’t go back.”
We go the distance with a smile
A lot of my friends live in Forest, which is further and hillier. It’s doable, of course, but with a SUGG it’s ten times more fun. The ride itself becomes the reward, not just a task to complete. That’s what SUGG brings — joy.
Even for longer distances, it still feels comfortable. If you want a bike for Brussels, built by and for people in Brussels, this is it! There’s a whole philosophy behind it. And the color? It’s the color of the sun, that just adds to the happiness.
“There’s an electric version too, but I don’t need it. The standard SUGG already feels electric — that’s how well it’s built.”
