bikes
are fitted with 8 speed downtube gear levers and standard brake
levers, |
|
to create a bike that is cheaper and
easier to maintain as well as providing a large saving on the
initial |
|
purchase price. As the name suggests it is the basic bicycle
technology that we all used to know and love |
|
before the
advent of STI gears systems two decades
ago. |
|
They also have standard
cartridge bearing bottom brackets with square tapered axles. |

This
Aravis 631 flat straight bar Commuter / Touring bike has proved to be very
popular this year. |
|
So versatile it can be used
as a commuting bike, a riding to work bike, a general
utility bike, |
|
or a serious go anywhere
touring bike. Use it on made up tarmac roads or off road on
Sustrans style tracks, |
|
that have firm level
surfaces. |
|
These bikes are built to a
higher specification and are much better quality,
|
|
than the usual cheap
range hybrids style bikes that are found in the major chain
stores. |
