K2 T:Nine Tailwind women's bike, with its relaxed riding position and easy handling, is just the ticket for comfortable, confident cruising.

K2's Dream Ride Design features a seatpost with a relaxed, rearward slant; also, the crankset is positioned slightly forward of the seatpost
The result is a low center of gravity, which, when combined with bike's step-through design, makes the Tailwind a breeze to mount and dismount
Also, low center of gravity and 26- in. tires enhance ride stability at slow speeds
Lightweight aluminum frame is designed to match the female frame, accommodating a typical woman's long legs and short upper body reach
SRAM 3.0 shifters and rear derailleur provide intuitively easy shifting through all seven speeds
Stylish swept-back handlebars place brake levers within easy reach; grips and levers are sized for the female hand
K2 Dream Ride Design handlebar features a bend, rise and sweep customized for controlled handling and an ache-free, upright ride
Suspension seatpost and coil-spring saddle cushion the bumps along the way; saddle features women-specific shaping
Quick-release seat clamp lets you adjust saddle height in mere moments without the use of tools
Kendra Khan tires are appropriate for smooth trails, bike paths and street use; quick-release wheel hubs make tire removal a snap
Features graphics with a feminine flair and matching accents on the saddle and grips

After its initial break-in period you might notice your bicycle performing less responsively than the day you brought it home. Not to worry, this is typical of all new bicycles and simply reflects that cables have stretched or their housings have seated themselves into final position. To keep running at peak performance, all REI bicycles come with a FREE warranty tune-up, which should be accomplished between the first 100-200 miles of riding or after the first two months if you're accumulating miles less quickly. Contact your nearest REI bike shop for details and an appointment for this important service.
