1. My electra townie 21 speed aluminium frame just snapped at the right rear drop out next to the rear derailleur. I have never crashed this bike,or jumped it off gutters etc and have always ridden it on sealed/tarred roads as i am a 50 year old and not into that style of riding. i was thoroughly enjoying the riding position but i would not advise buying one as the quality really isn't there for long term reliable riding. I have had to replace many items,the first being the bottom bracket after just two months,also the front shock absorbers have become loose and wobble around the seals,and now that the frame is broken, it is totally un-rideable,and maybe unfixable if i can't find a welder with the necessary skills.
2. I always have liked Cruiser Bicycles. I never understood the fascination with Mountain Biking and riding through the mud. I can see if you are 10-13 years old that's fine, that's what kids do, but an adult trekking through the mud, I don't get it, unless you are professionally riding and getting paid.
3. Does anyone have, or has anyone ridden the townie with balloon tyres? I live in Australia... and I'm waiting to get one... maybe... it's under consideration at the moment...
4. bad editing,that's an amsterdam sport at 1:34 and learn how to pronounce the names,the tire is Scwhalbe not Schwable ha ha
5. Awesome bike! just got a townie 7 today. Extremely comfortable! No regrets!
6. I have a Conor WRC mountain bike and a trekking bike. Since I had my new Electra Indy I don't want to ride them anymore. The Indy is the most comfortable bike I've ever ridden! That's what I call a DreamCruiser bicycle!
7. Ive got a rally sport fully spect up to the max and it's fucking brilliant I will never ever go back to riding mountain bikes again.
8. AHHHHH! Red deluxe cruiser! I want one so baddddd! I'm putting my money away to get one before I go to college.
9. WOW i love those bikes i'm addicted
