Surprisingly amazed! This single speed was very easy to ride even in a slightly steep hill on the boardwalk. The foot break is strong but just need a little getting used to. I like that it looks clean without any extra cables.

HANDSOME WELL-BUILT CRUISER

3 years ago

I bought this as a Father’s Day gift. My husband says if he were to describe his dream beach cruiser in both body and style this bike would be it. Best cruiser bike he has ever owned, hands down. It sure is a purty one! And rides smooth like butter.

I bought one recently from their Norwalk store and I've been impressed with it. This is a bare-bones Beach Cruiser, no more no less. If you are look for this type of bicycle, you'll be pleased with the value.
