Similar to a cruiser, it’s relatively low-slung, which makes it easy to mount and dismount; however, unlike a standard cruiser, which usually features 1-gear systems, this bike boasts an incredible 21-gears.

This bike can go from flat, level ground to bumpy, hilly trails with ease.
Linear pool brakes (handlebar brakes) provide increased security, as they’re easier to operate in emergency situations. An oversized saddle-style, padded seat provides shock absorption and will keep you comfortable during those longer excursions. The seat is adjustable, too, so you can easily achieve the ideal position for you. Front and rear fenders will keep your clothing clean and dry. A large rear rack provides plenty of space for cargo. The tires are thinner than a standard cruiser, yet their still quite sturdy; however, because the tires are thinner, you’ll be able to achieve greater speeds than you would on a cruiser. This bike is perfect for taking leisurely rides and off-road excursions.
