Description
Costing less than a year’s worth of bus passes, our level 1 Midtown is here to make your commute a lot more fun. We have broken our entry-level urban bike out into a couple tiers, making a quality ride even more accessible. Built on a light and strong frame, the Midtown has a comfortable upright riding position that excels in urban environments. Mechanical disc brakes keep your speed right where you want it and are a real step up from rim brakes, especially on rainy days. The Midtown is easy to maintain and is a great refresher on the joy of cycling. Rack and fender mounts let you customize your ride and make it more useful. And the large-diameter wheels carry more momentum than standard 26in. mountain bike wheels, so you cruise right over bumps, rough pavement and unpaved side streets.Midtown frame uses 6000 series butted aluminum tubing, giving it an excellent strength to weight ratioLower top tube makes mounting and dismounting easier700 x 38mm high-volume tires help smooth out rough roads and can handle dirt roads, paths and light trail useTektro mechanical disc brakes work well in all weather conditionsWide-ranging 8-speed microSHIFT and Shimano (Altus) drivetrain suits general city ridingUpright seated position and 15mm riser bars give you good visibility in trafficFlat Wellgo pedals are easy to use in a wide rang of footwear, from business casual to flip-flopsBikes are covered by MEC’s Rocksolid Guarantee and Bike Service Agreement.
