FeaturesThe Hudson was designed to ease the transition from non-cycling to cycling for those who haven't been on a bike in some time. The laid back seat tube and lowered bottom bracket height allows riders to position their saddles for efficient leg extension and still easily reach the ground while seated for balance when stopped. The longer chainstays and wheelbase in tandem with the lower center of gravity offers a very smooth, stable ride. Our step-through version is exceptionally easy to mount thanks to the low BB height and super-low 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. The lightweight & durable 6061 aluminum frame features formed top and down tubes, S-bend seatstays, internal cup head tube, and internal cable routing for exceptionally good looks and increased strength. All frame sizes (and there are six to assure the best possible fit for greater comfort and more secure handling) offer an extra long head tube and hi-rise handlebars for a comfortable, upright ride position. The alloy crankset features an outer-ring chainguard. With another full length chainguard running the length of the chain from seatstays to chaining, clothing is well protected from the chain. Our smooth-rolling 26 x 1.95" Sport Comfort tires are more comfortable to ride around town than full knobby mountain bike tires, and feature cool looking skinwall or whitewall sidewalls depending on frame color. The Easy is as easy to ride as it gets. One easy gear to pedal: no shifting!. One easy brake to operate: a traditional rear, pedal-operated coaster brake! Our super plush saddle is made with thickly padded, high-density polyurethane foam for optimum support with maximum comfort. The slip-resistant suedetype 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. The sealed cartridge bottom bracket & sealed headset improve performance and reduce maintenance. Our long quilled, short-reach stem and 3" rise handlebars offer a supremely comfortable, upright ride position that's easy on neck & wrists. A near all-alloy parts list -- alloy micro-adjust seat post, alloy stem, alloy crank, alloy seat post clamp, alloy hubs, alloy rims, alloy brakes & alloy brake levers -- reduces weight, adds value and is rust-proof.
