FeaturesRugged mountain bike styling and large volume 26" tires make the Explorer as comfortable on smooth dirt roads and groomed trails as on pavement. The Explorer's lightweight & durable aluminum frame features formed top & down tubes & S-bend seatstays for good looks and increased strength. Our sloping double-diamond frame design with extra long head tube in 4 sizes assures the best possible customer fit for greater comfort, better handling & an all-around safer ride. Our step-through version is exceptionally easy to mount thanks to the superlow position of the S-bent top tube. No more swinging a leg over the rear wheel, or pulling a knee up to the chest to step over the top tube to mount a bike. SR's M3010 suspension fork offers 50mm of coil-sprung travel with external preload adjustment, chrome-plated stanchions and alloy crown. Alex DC25 double-wall rims are stronger, lighter and longer lasting than standard single wall rims. Our smooth-rolling 26 x 1.95" Sport Comfort tires are more comfortable to ride around town than full knobby mountain bike tires and offer a layer of Aramid & ceramic particles under the tread area for enhanced puncture-resistance. Explorer 2 features a full 21-speed Shimano Revoshift twist-shifting drivetrain with tripled-ringed Shimano FC-M171 48/38/28 crankset, Shimano Altus M310 rear derailleur & 14-34 Mega-Range freewheel, for easy hill climbing and controlled pedaling descents. Tektro's Tenera brake levers offer slip-resistant, shock-absorbing inserts on the finger contact points for more secure, comfortable braking Our super plush saddle features memory foam padding for optimum support with maximum comfort. The slip-resistant suede-type top prevents sliding and the burnished side panels reduce leg friction while pedaling. Elastomer springs help soak up high resonant road vibrations. Offered in gender specific sizes. With an inch of coil-sprung telescoping travel, the Explorer's suspension seatpost helps to smooth out the road and trail. Our long quilled, angle-adjustable stem and 3" rise handlebars offer a supremely comfortable, upright ride position that's easy on neck & wrists. The rubber-like inserts on the pedals are actually slip-resistant, offering some shock-absorption as well, for a safer, more secure ride.
