Review

The Specialized Sirrus is a great city / urban bike. With the Specialized name branded on the frame, you know you're getting a bike that cares about build and performance. This bike features a flat bar design and is best suited for urban city riding. I'm not saying don't take it off the pavement, but the pavement is definitely where this bike is going to shine. Use this bike to commute to work or the grocery store, or travel down a road you've never been before and get lost in your own city.

Priced just over $500, this budget-friendly bike will be your cheapest and best means of transportation. Equipped with rack and fender mounts, who needs to pay for parking next time you need to pick up groceries? Fast, smooth Specialized Nimbus tires provide excellent traction in all weather conditions, feature Flak Jacket puncture protection, and have superior handling capabilities.

Don't worry about being seen in low light situations. Specialized uses reflective graphics on the bike in order to increase your visibility when motorists may not otherwise notice you.

If you're a cyclist on a budget, or you simply want to decrease your carbon footprint, the Specialized Sirrus is the perfect urban bike for you.
