Practically all bikes in the Netherlands still look like that today. They’re a tool to get you from A to B and this design has proven very reliable for that.
U-locks for bikes are a rarity as well. Basically all bikes have a lock built-in, that you optionally pair with a chain if you park it somewhere deemed unsafe.
