Cruiser

The ideal choice for casual rides around the neighborhood, bike path, or wherever your adventure awaits. Our unique Foot Forward pedal placement and easy upright riding position ensure total comfort and stability while on the bike. The Foot Forward position allows you to maintain proper saddle height while still having the ability to place your feet on the ground when seated. The Drifter 7 offers a straightforward 1 x 7 drivetrain that is durable and provides a wide enough gearing for most terrain. - Lightweight 6061 alloy frame with foot-forward riding position - Alloy crankset with sealed cartridge bottom bracket - Alloy rims with stainless steel spokes - 26 x 2.25-inch multi-condition tires - Alloy upright city handlebar and stem - Sun custom cruiser saddle and ergo grips - Steel chain guard - Alloy kickstand

We designed our Earth Cruisers to be kinder, gentler versions of our sport comfort bikes. They're simplified with easy-to-use coaster brake drivetrains without the complications of derailleurs or hand brakes to fiddle around with. In spite of their name, they're not just for riding at the beach. They're for any rider anywhere looking for a simple, lightweight, low-maintenance, good-looking bike they can casually and comfortably pedal around town all day, every day. DIET CRUISER Many cruisers weigh well north of 40 pounds. Not so with the Earth Cruiser. Because nothing gets more uncomfortable faster than having to pedal more weight than necessary, we've pared as many grams from the Earth Cruiser as we could. Starting with the lightweight aluminum frame and a parts pick that's nearly all lightweight alloy parts. The result is a 29-pound Earth Cruiser 1 that's pure joy to pedal. LOOKS GREAT TODAY & TOMORROW Many of the parts specified on our Earth Cruisers are made of aluminum to save weight, but also to help preserve the finish of the bike. Aluminum parts include the seat post, seat clamp, stem, rims, front hub, kickstand and crank arms (EC3 and EC1). We've even specified a silver-plated chain on the EC3 and EC1 that doesn't just look great, it's way more rust-resistant than standard carbon steel chains. COMFORTABLE STEERING Our cruise-control handlebars were designed to promote a comfortable no-weight-on-the-wrists riding position. With just the right sweep and rise, these handlebars meet the rider's hands without requiring a forward bend at the waist, relieving pressure on the back of the neck. Handlebar width has also been carefully calculated so that when steered from left to right it does not contact the rider, unlike many other cruiser-style handlebars. MEMORY FOAM SADDLE Our Earth Cruiser saddles are not just great looking, they're extraordinarily comfortable as well. Though the size and shape is clearly generous, we've also molded a channel into the top of the saddle to relieve sitting pressure and use high-quality memory or polyurethane foam for the supporting mattress. Memory foam was originally developed by NASA and is now used extensively for medical applications. It is much denser than the foams ordinarily used in saddles, which makes it more supportive and more comfortable. SMOOTH ROLLING TIRES Our comfort tires have been designed to roll smoothly on pavement, but offer a large 2.125" footprint so that rides on park paths can be managed securely. The additional benefit of that big footprint is larger air volume in the tire and tube, which results in lower air pressure for a more comfortable ride than tires with smaller volumes and higher air pressures. NO-SLIP PEDALS Our Earth Cruisers pedals offer a thermoplastic elastomer insert on both sides of the pedal surface that keeps shoes and sandals from slipping when soles or pedals get wet. These inserts also make barefoot pedaling comfortable.
