  • Moustache (French). Mainly sports, mountainbiking. Produced in France. Lots of options, great for off road, but city too.
  • Cowboy (Belgian), luxury segment. Made in Belgium. Most beautiful design, tbh. Phone is chargeable on bike handlebar, battery easily removable. A bit of an ecosystem, though.
  • Mokumono (Dutch), heavily focuses on being 100% European-produced. Probably your best bet for fully European-made bikes.
  • Gazelle (Dutch) is also excellent. More expensive, but great labour rights, repair service, and quality. Produced in the Netherlands.
  • Lekker Bikes (Dutch), excellent customer service. Made in Europe and Australia. Most practical, imo.
  • Ampler (Estonian), lightest and USB-C-chargeable. EU-made. Best bang for your buck, imo, though the battery isn't removable.

There are certainly a lot more that are good too, but I listed the ones that pop up first in my mind. Lots of good suggestions from other lemmings here. For a more exhaustive list, see here.
