A thoughtful Mother’s Day gift goes far beyond the day itself. Consider jorg & olif’s city bike (from $1,375 at An Earnest Cut & Sew, 821 Washington St., nr. Gansevoort St.; 212-242-3414), which gently encourages fitness and emissions-free transportation. Newly available in New York, but with a design based on Amsterdam’s ubiquitous bikes, this is elegant enough to leave (locked) in the foyer. Its handlebars are set high to make riders sit comfortably erect, and the wide leather saddle will buffer small potholes.
