Very good purchase, good quality components, awesome suspension, I added my personal touch (I painted the fenders in the colors of the wheels) I also exchanged my seat for more comfort (I am 62 years old) and I lettered my fat tires. Love to walk around with it and pedestrians turn when we pass by. But getting on our step-thru frame electric bike is very gentle and elegant. Even with the step-thru structure, the overall structure is still very solid. The motor is also very powerful, so don’t worry that such an elegant electric bike won’t give you the power you want.
There were lots of alleyways which, back then, were fun to ride through. The release of the 1985 film Pee-wee’s Big Adventure[15] highlighted the main character’s cross-country search for his lost custom-built heavily-accessorized horn-tank bicycle. I bought this bike in California from the original owner who bought it new. The original sticker from the bike shop is still on the bike-see pics. This machine is very rugged with minor mechanical upkeep.
You have come here because you know Huffy Bikes or want to know about them! Huffy makes amazing bikes, that include affordable bikes, and they are certainly better than from your local bike shop. Co-op Cycles is REI’s house brand of bikes that offer some of the best value on the market. For $600 you get a lightweight aluminum frame and fork, Shimano 24-speed drivetrain, a nice Comfort Plus saddle with memory foam, and fast rolling 700x40c tires. The CTY 1.1 is offered in two colors and five sizes for the standard frame style, and three sizes in a step-through variant.
Based in Easton, Pennsylvania, Tara spends tons of time on the road and trail testing products. A familiar face at cyclocross races, crits, and bike parks in the Mid Atlantic and New England, on weekends she can often be found racing for the New York City-based CRCA/KruisCX team. When not riding a bike, or talking about them, Tara listens to a lot of ska, punk, and emo music, and consumes too much social media. Although I have a soft spot for many of their great edits this one is more relevant, being that it is one of the few bike related films they have shot, and Schwinn bikes are just classics! Growing up my favourite rider was David Cullinen and at the time I got into biking, he rode for Schwinn.
The single-speed drivetrain is simple to use, while the rear coaster brake provides intuitive stops. Plus, the Largo’s upright riding position and Schwinn quality cruiser spring saddle make this one of the most comfortable rides around. The powerful and straightforward, RadCity 5 Plus is a city bike with commuter potential. Strapped with a 750w geared hub motor, this e-bike schwinn cruiser bike moves along at a comfortable 20 mph with a throttle to help you get up to speed or the top of punchy hills. Its range is pretty far at up to 50 miles per charge, and including fenders, a rack, and integrated lights is a nice bonus. Plus, the 27.5 x 2-inch-wide proprietary tires, along with a front-suspension fork, provide comfort on pavement and bumpy bike paths.
Diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis in 2009, Jeff uses his bike to fight inflamatory bowel disease. Fast forward to today, I think these early experiences on my grandparent’s bike were incredibly transformative. Even back then, I enjoyed the freedom and adventure of traveling on streets and roads untraveled. No doubt, my grandparent’s bike continues to influence my attitude of the bike today. That’s the beauty of those early bicycling experiences; they’re ingrained in you whether you know it or not. Down the street was a school with a playground that had a swing.

We recommend the Level to any commuter or recreationally oriented rider looking for great value, performance, and function in an e-bike. The Aventon Level checks off almost every one of the necessary boxes in what I look for in a purpose-built commuter bike. This bike forces Aventon’s competition to get on their level. By 1972, a new wave of lightweight derailleur-equipped bicycles led a wave of new consumer interest in recreational bicycling, resulting in the bike boom. Derailleur-equipped sport bikes or ten speeds inspired by European racing bicycles soon dominated the adult market. Schwinn introduced their 10 speeds in the early 60s starting first with the Continental, a name they resurrected, and later the Varsity.
