Very sorry to say this bike model is all sold out

Summary:

Product Notification

Please keep the mudguards on this bicycle as is and do not remove them. If you decided to remove the mudguards please keep the mudguard mount bolt on the bicycle. Also please keep it in the same place, and tightened. The reason is, with regards to lugged forks this mudguard mount bolt acts as a safety for the fork. So it does two jobs. One being the mudguard mount. Second being the safety for the fork and it increases the strength of the fork joints.

Details:

Now this bike is purely inspired by the BSA paratrooper bicycle. That bicycle was used by the British paratroopers back in the 1940s. They did lots of research on this bicycle and wanted to build a bicycle that would fit to any body type, size and height. Took that bike in to account, modified to fit in to todays world. Saying that lots and lots of frame design iterations were done to match todays modern bicycle geometry, especially racing bicycles and and got settled to the final product.

Height of the center tube is 18 inches. So this bike would be categorised under a medium. With its geometry and the bended top bar this bike would suit anyone between 5' 3" to 6' 2", May be even taller people. The sturdy Chromoly frame would suit anyone really. Not saying this to sell a bicycle. Did lots of research on the bike before it got in to production

I am very glad that the factory did not kick me out for asking for too much. The target was to bring in a bicycle built with Chromoly, SRAM gears and hydraulic disc brakes and also offer it under $400. So this bike is priced at $395. This is a result of it and after lots of negotiations with the factory and if you decided to purchase this bicycle please thank them first.

Frame

As the heart of this bicycle which is the frame plus the fork it is made with high quality lightweight Chromoly 4130 (Cr-Mo) . Chromoly is the workhorse of steel and is a mix of steel with Chromium, Molybdenum, Carbon, Manganese, Sulphur and Phosphorus. Chromoly would absorb more of the road vibration as well as would give you a solid ride. Also the frame would last a very long time. With the 24 gear unit, mudguards, the stand the bike would weigh around 13 KG.

The welding on this bicycle is world class. Also please see the bellow image next to the warranty to see the bottom joint.

Colour: Matte black (now this is proper matte black not the semi matte black)

Brakes

Tektro Hydraulic Disk brakes. They are very good quality, responsive brakes. Also durable. TRP is the high-end division of Tektro, a huge manufacturer of brakes and other bicycle components. Can guarantee that you are getting a reliable set of brakes with Tektro.

Drivetrain

Now, this bike has SRAM gears. Saying that again yes it is indeed SRAM 'X4'. 24 Gears in Total. The gears change smoothly and they feel like a super good high-end component set. Really easy to change gears.

SRAM Crankset (Chainset) is 28Tx38Tx48T with a 175mm arms and largest cog is matte black and smaller inner cogs are silver. It also comes with a cover/guard. The cassette is comprised with 8 cogs ranging from 11T to 32T. This crank and cassette combination would give you a wide gear radio options.

SRAM is the Mac in the bicycle world. SRAM is based in Chicargo and they even had Tour de France winners with SRAM groupsets. SRAM is super reliable and very well made. You would see what I am talking about if you are willing to give this bike a test ride.

Warranty

We very well understand that you like to be treated just as much as we like to be treated. Saying that if there is a mechanical failure you would be covered under a 1 year warranty. This includes gear system, brakes as such. Other consumable items such as tyres, tubes, brake pads are not covered under this warranty. The frame is under 2 1/2 years warranty. Also other than the above warranty you are covered under consumer guarantee rights under Australian consumer law. So we would honor you rights fully.

Bicycles sold at the store are fully assembled and ready to ride. There are few bikes already setup and looking forward to serve. Very happy to offer a test ride. If you like a bicycle, you are very welcome to purchase that bicycle on the spot.

If you purchased a bicycle online and would like it delivered then, the bike would come in a box and 85% assembled so not that difficult to setup. It is highly recommended that newly assembled shipped bike gets double checked by a professional or get built by a professional bike mechanic. Before shipping we would unbox a bicycle and do some checks. That way you would have a minimum setup. Also a peace of mind from us knowing that all is well before a bike being sent.

Thank you very much.
