TLDW: Japan has step through bike frames, electric bikes, child seats, hand warmers and phone holders. If they are in any way built different or have any unique features at all, the video fails to mention it.

I used to wonder why I'd see old people wobbling on their bikes after stopping at a crosswalk until I realized it's harder to control the bike with those curved handlebars from a stop. I guess it's more comfortable when you're riding because you don't have to lean forward as much but I prefer the straight handlebars still.

Straight bars on anything other than a mountain bike sounds like raw Fred territory
