KEY FEATURES

Timeless | Reynolds Steel Frame

We only use Reynolds steel for our bikes, as it produces strong and lightweight frames. For this model, we use Reynolds 520 double butted tubing, creating the sort of comfort only steel can provide.

Quality Hill-climbing Gears

9 wide range Shimano gears are built to get you up even the steepest city streets whilst being hassle-free to maintain.

Classic, Daily use Design

The frame is finished with a protective powder coat, whilst also having plenty of clearance for full-length mudguards and multiple options for attaching racks. Sealed bearings are used throughout the bike to minimise maintenance.

SPECIFICATIONS

The Classic Lightweight is your ideal companion for urban commuting and light touring, perfectly blending versatility with a timeless design. This bike is perfect for city cycling and everyday trail adventures, making it one of the best hybrid bikes for 2024. Experience  a superior ride quality on every journey with this classic lightweight steel bicycle.
