Great bike

PostedJune 10, 2011

Yes, I recommend this product.

Pros: Good value, Good quality, Looks great

This is my first single speed bike and I have to admit that I just love it! There is no hassle with the gears and the road bike like frame and wheels give the bike an easy going like feel.

I use the bike mostly for commuting and I have a smirk on my face every time I start my trip to work. That ain't a small deed for a bike to do. I also have child seat frame bracket installed and use it for family trips on weekends. My boy loves it when we go fast the downhills and this bike serves him exactly that.

The frame and the parts look and feel like good quality bike should. I have to admit that I am no expert, but that the feel I got from my mediocre experience. I bought the cream colored model and like the color despite the prejudice I had. It looks more like retro/vintage bike in this color and with the mudguards in same color.

All and all I am very pleased with the bike and can recommend it anyone who is looking for a single speed or fixie.

Very nice bike!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Pros: Good value, Looks great

I bought this bike mainly for the frame, the fenders and because it was Single speed/Fixie. I equipped it with a Brooks saddle and a Track bar and it became awsome! Couldn´t be more happy! The only thing about the frame is that the paint job is of rather poor quality, otherwise perfect!

Does what it says on the tin

PostedFebruary 4, 2011

Yes, I recommend this product.

Pros: Good value, Good quality, Comfortable, Lightweight, Looks great, retro cool

I choose this over a Trek District. With this Charge I liked the straight and low handle bars (the Trek was way too sit up and beg for me). I tend to like steel over alu - old fashioned I know, but it really handles so well. Solid but not heavy and rides beautifully. Quick too.
Looks a little old fashioned (retro!) with the mud guards but practical at the same time as being more edgy than all the boring hybrids out there.
No idea why there are still '09s knocking around as it is way too good to be on the shelf.
I was worried about sizing but the 'small' is perfect for a 5'4" female.
And don't worry about the lack of gears, you will be amazed you ever needed them on another bike (having trouble remembering to change on my Bianchi road bike now!).
