A seven-speed drivetrain with a 44t chainring and 14-34t cassette opens this bike up to more variety of exploring in areas that aren’t mostly flat. This one from Tuesday costs $45 and has a spring clip to hold valuables in place. With one of the lowest step-through frames in the business, the Roll 2.0 Low-Entry is ideal for anyone who’s ever been apprehensive about swinging a leg over a top tube or being able to touch their feet to the ground at the last second. Beefy 650b x 2.3-inch tires roll smoothly on the road, but come to your rescue when the pavement gets sketchy or a sandy shortcut starts calling your name. Its upright geometry puts you in a position that takes strain off your neck and back and lets you take in the sights around you, but isn’t ideal for steep climbs up winding mountains.

Lowrider bicycles are usually built on old Schwinn Sting-Ray or other “muscle bike” frames, but the entire lowrider look of “old school” accessories such as springer forks and bullet headlights is in the cruiser tradition. Several manufacturers offer “chopper” style bikes in their cruiser range. These bikes usually feature a lower center of gravity, suspension forks, hot rod paint jobs, and large rear tires. The Huffy Cranbrook Women’s City Cruiser Bike allows you to explore the world around you in a comfortable and fun way. The captivating color of this cruiser evokes the lovely allure of an elegant California wine and is just as stylish to ride as it is comfortable. Finally, manufacturers have also introduced the “comfort bike” category, to combine the soft ride and upright posture of cruisers with a more conventionally styled bike.
In 1980, Schwinn introduced the Cruiser Series which has survived multiple iterations and has been offered more or less continuously through present. The most desirable Cruisers are the Cruiser, Deluxe Cruiser and Cruiser 5. The 4, 7 and Alloy as well as the other models were made as part of the Signature Series by Schwinn’s current parent, in China. A stylish, comfortable, and practical ride, the Huffy Deluxe Women’s Cruiser Bike will provide years of relaxing rides. If you need help with installation or troubleshooting, kindly use our Builder Locator to find builders near you. After you place your order, FreedomCityBikeClub will take 1-2 business days to prepare it for shipment.
These bikes could be had with Sturmey Archer 3 speeds from England and had chromoly tubing. To popularize these bicycles they enlisted the help of Hollywood celebrities. Ronald Reagan is seen riding huffy cruiser one in the 1947 Schwinn catalog. The Huffy Cranbrook looks simple, and it is; it’s simple and easy to ride. But this cruiser is packed with cool style and comfort to make any ride feel awesome.
A classic cruiser with classic lines, the Rover 9 has a light 6061 aluminum frame and steel fork, hydraulic disc brakes, and a 1×9-speed drivetrain controlled by a Microshift trigger shifter. Moderately grippy, 45mm-wide Kenda Koast tires (with coffee-colored sidewalls) on 27.5-inch alloy rims roll fast and eat potholes in your path. The open, alloy pedals aren’t the most barefoot-friendly compared to rubber-coated pedals, but that’s an easy and inexpensive swap. The Rover 9 comes in two sizes (medium for 5-foot-5 to 5-foot-9 riders, large for 5-foot-10 and taller), two colors (brushed alloy and matte black), and one frame (there’s no step-through model here). And with nine gears to click through, the Rover 9 crosses over into short-commute territory.
In the highest pedal-assist mode, that range drops to 15 miles, making the Simi better suited to slow-speed rolls than high-speed commutes. The step-thru frame makes the Simi suitable for everyone, especially those who are just getting into—or back into—riding. You get quite a few extras with this bike (extras that are often left off other bikes that cost as much or more), such as a kickstand, fenders, lights, a rear rack, and a bottle-cage mount. With a 7-speed drivetrain and a cassette—not to mention the bonus boost you get from the motor—this is one beach bike that can do more than just hit the flat boardwalk for an out-and-back morning jaunt. One of the first uses of the term “cruiser” for motobikes may have been in the WW2 era, by Mead Cycle Co., who sold via mail-order bicycles of the brand names Ranger, Pathfinder and Crusader. The Crusader “Cruiser” model was the high-end men/boy’s bicycle, and included additional features, such as front headlight, rear rack, and most importantly, the motorbike tank.
