Electra Bikes
Although Electra is a brand rather than a type of bicycle, we've given them their own category because they don't really fit into any others. Electras are sort of comfort bikes, sort of cruisers, but not exactly. They are, however, exactly stylin'. We stock several of their Townie bikes, as well as The Amsterdam Classics. Plus, all of their cruisers are available to us. (All models come with kickstands.)
Townie 8
$750
You could call The Townie 8 our ultimate comfort bike. It's upright riding position, front suspension, and "flat foot technology" make it the bike that all the other manufacturers copy. The internal eight speed coaster brake hub makes negotiating the hills around here easy. Moreover, it is unparallel for simplicity of operation. You can shift gears while pedaling, coasting, or even sitting still! You just can't beat that.

Townie 21
$445
The Townie 21 enjoys the same comfort and "flat foot technology" as all of the Townies, but it has more gears on it. The greater number of gears makes it easier to pedal up the hills. Moreover, the more common derailleur type shifting brings the price down. That makes the Townie 21 an especially good value. (Men's also available in Silver and women's also available in baby blue.)

Townie 7D
$395
In the vein of "less is more", we offer the Townie 7D. It's fewer gears make for both simpler operation and a smaller price tag, but it still has plenty of low gear for the hills around here. (Also available in vivid blue.)

Townie 3 (700c)
$550
We added the Townie 3 to the lineup this year simply because it was irresistible. The 700c size wheels, the fenders, and the three speed coaster brake, give it an elegance and simplicity we could not pass up. We think you'll agree.

The Amsterdam
$550
As the name suggests, The Amsterdam is styled after the original utilitarian bikes of Amsterdam. As such, features include a generator light, fenders, luggage rack, chain guard, and wheel skirts. The three speed coaster brake transmission lends reliability and simplicity of operation. The "cool" factor is a bonus. (The men's model is also available in green. The women's model also comes in green or black.)
