City and Commuter Bicycles
Commuter and City bikes are made to be ridden in areas with
traffic. They usually do not have an extreme number of gears.
When riding in a city or downtown, you will need to make
frequent stops, dodge traffic, and get to where you are going on
time. Many commuter bikes now have 700c wheels, 7-speeds and
take advantage of the Shimano Nexus Hub. Shimano's Nexus system
gets rid of the derailleur and has a coaster brake with it. Most
will also have hand brakes, so you will have very good braking
power when a quick stop is a must. Light systems are also a good
idea, as are racks and baskets.
A new brand that offers several bicycles that can be used for commuting is Cadillac. They are offered at select bike shops and exclusively online at Cadillac Bike Store.
