The lightweight aluminum frame is a perfect match for salty beach-side conditions. A dual-spring padded seat; and soft, cork handlebar grips complete the comfort features. Cruiser bikes aren’t a popular choice for long distances, like on bike-packing trips. However, for shorter trips around town, like commuting to work, they can fit the bill. With a seven-speed drivetrain, the Schwinn Huron Adult Beach Cruiser Bike is ready to conquer any hills on your urban commute or to accelerate around traffic. Twist shifters help gear changes easy to make on the fly, while front and rear linear pull brakes offer confident stopping power.
However, some cruiser bikes will not list the specific size of the frame, but instead are listed as small, medium or large. In this case, you should refer to the bike manufacturer for more information on sizing. You can adjust the handlebar and seat to accommodate the height. This makes them ideal for adults of a minimum rider height of 5 ft. The bike is a single speed with backward peddling braking.
With three frame sizes to choose from, you can find the perfect fit with this Nishiki model. This affordable mountain bike is just as fun to ride on a bumpy gravel path as it is coasting down a Huffy Nel Lusso city street. The Huffy Cape Cod cruiser is like a classic car, filled with custom details large and small. The metallic blue Huffy Cape Cod cruiser is design for comfort, convenience and fun.
Aluminum frames are stiffer and more rigid than steel, which can be rough on city streets. Steel is more durable than aluminum; it’s less brittle and less prone to breaking when damaged. Aluminum, on the other hand, is lightweight and stiff, and less prone to rust. Single speed with coaster brake for easy braking and pedaling. Frames are decent, rear drop outs are a little weak, crankset stripped on 2 of them. I’ve been riding a huffy cranbrook for years and have replaced every part.
The Chief Man 7 Speed is the ideal beach cruiser bike for tall men, with its extended length frame and forward pedaling. Although the chief has a short frame at only 19”, the added length and the 4” forward pedaling design makes this an ideal ride for men 5’4” – 6’4”. Another financial drain was the Pro Spectacular concept, a revival of a similar experiment abandoned in 1980 after financial losses. At the time, BMX as a whole was not a mature enough sport for the concept to be a success. In 1984, the perceptible drop in the popularity in BMX racing was outstripped by the explosive growth in BMX freestyle bicycles. Track operators noted a decline in new entrances in the beginner’s class at local tracks.
