No, not all Dutch bikes lack brakes on the front wheel. While it is true that traditional Dutch bicycles, known as "omafiets" or "grandma bikes," often feature a coaster brake on the rear wheel but no handbrakes, there are many variations and modern adaptations of Dutch bikes that do have front wheel brakes.

In recent years, the popularity of Dutch-style bicycles has increased globally, leading to the development of different models and variations to suit various preferences and riding conditions. Modern Dutch bikes often come equipped with both front and rear handbrakes, providing improved braking performance and safety.

It's worth noting that the design of Dutch bicycles emphasizes a relaxed and comfortable riding experience, with an upright riding position and features such as full chain guards, fenders, and sturdy frames. However, the presence or absence of front wheel brakes can vary depending on the specific model and manufacturer.
