The Townie 700C 21 combines Electra's comfortable forward pedaling position with a sporty design geared for long-distance and fitness rides.
- Frame geometry places bottom bracket and pedals well ahead of the seatpost, resulting in leg movement many people prefer over standard designs
- Geometry places rider upright for comfortable, heads-up positioning; aft positioning allows a rider to place both feet on the ground at a stop
- With 21 speeds, this Townie is set to tackle hills and charge the flats; features Shimano Tourney rear derailleur and a replaceable derailleur hanger
- Shimano trigger shifters are intuitively easy to use
- 700x40 tires provide a big-wheel ride that covers distances quickly and smoothes out small bumps; quick-release hubs make wheel removal a snap
- Hand-operated linear-pull brakes control both wheels, providing smooth, responsive deceleration
- Townie saddle features soft Lycra® spandex insert and shock-absorbing elastomers for all-day riding comfort
- Lightweight aluminum frame provides vertical stiffness for prompt acceleration and power in climbs; it's also easily lifted for storage and transport
- Platform pedals accept most casual shoes
