EVOL! Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 My wife and I have been talking about getting new bicycles for a while. She found these Public bikes on clearance and ordered one for herself. I liked it so much I got one too. It's a 7 speed hybrid; perfect for riding paved trails around here. I feel like a kid again. Growing up in rural Michigan we road *a lot* of bikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfpup Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Classic Ida figured you for one of those one-speed hipster bikes though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dub-T-123 Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Sweet looking bike! Enjoy cruising with the wife J! Have you ever tried riding a fixie, Pup? Those things are scary when you get up to speed. My friend has one and it has no brakes, you slow down by back pedaling. Not my idea of fun personally haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though I have a 24 speed mountain bike still. It doesn't get out much anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVOL! Posted November 20, 2016 Author Share Posted November 20, 2016 Ida figured you for one of those one-speed hipster bikes though Heck no! I lost most of my fearlessness years ago. Those bikes are suicide, as seen by the downtown Chicago bike messengers who weave in an out of traffic and pedestrians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deeman Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Nice! I have a similar looking 3 speed Schwinn from the 70's. It's heavy as heck but a great ride. Those fixie jerks in Chicago are crazy. I agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparquelito Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I really dig that bike! And the British racing green is really nice. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pesh Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Very nice! I'm needing to get myself a bike again; Barcelona seems to be a city to travel around by bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturn Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Very classic. And cool in a nerdy sorta way. I don't see a bell though. Maybe you should start one of those " Fenders on or off" Polls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
