For your first bike in 20 years or a young lady's first adult wheels, the Novara Flirt fits the bill with its easy handling and great feminine style.

26 in. wheels and wide tires are inherently stable at slow speeds—great if you're back on a bike after all those years or new to an adult-size bike
You'll love the easy-mounting convenience of the step-through frame; excellent stand-over height eases fears of quick stops
Retro/comfort styling places the rider fully upright, which optimizes steering control and visibility
Flirt's 24 speeds are intuitively simple to use, and the high-to-low gearing makes carrying groceries home in a rear rack (sold separately) a breeze
SRAM 3.0 twist shifters are comfortable, easy to use and allow you to keep your hands on the handlebars while shifting
Suspension fork and seatpost smooth out all the little bumps in the road
Features a comfort handlebar with a handy bell for signaling others; reflective tire sidewalls enhance low-light visibility
Also features a women's comfort saddle with memory foam gel
Accommodates front and rear fenders
Specs are subject to change

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.

Imported.

Comments about Novara Flirt Women's Bike - 2009:

This ultra cool bike is great for cruising around town or the neighborhood, instead of firing up the car for short trips. And it's fun to ride! Comfortable feel, nice upright position, easy step-thru "girls" frame, & great stability. It's much lighter (32.5 lbs) than comparable cruisers, has more gears, and costs less than the competition. I keep mine at the office and leave my hybrid at home for more challenging weekend rides. Oh, and I love that color, the curvy lines, and those cute graphics! This bike turns heads and brings out the girl in me. I added a Topeak rear frame and Topeak pack with fold-up panniers, and I'm ready for anything my workday brings, including a fun ride on my Flirt after the workday is done. It's much better than the REI description suggests.
