We hand build each wheel at Handsome Cycles Studio before professionally assembling the entire bike from the frameset up. Plus, the coaster brake on this build means that you can still coast when you don’t want to pedal, but you can also lay down some nice skids. Instantly feel the freedom and bravado of being a kid again. Just try it and you’ll know exactly what we are talking about.

Ultimate commuter or around-town internally geared 8 speed with all black parts and honey accents. What makes this bike even more special is the premium dynamo lighting system. This is a perfect around town bike for all seasons. The dynamo lighting system is one of the best systems on the market with the Son28 made in Germany hub and IQ-XS front light. Hand built by our amazing builder with really well run wires. Clean!

WHAT IS DYNAMO

The SON 28 dynamo hub is the perfect choice for ultimate reliability and optimal performance even when riding at slow speeds. This hub generates all the power needed to run your front and rear lights, and more! Riding with a dynamo system is like the lights on your car. You never charge anything and they always work when you just start riding. The IQ-XS front light has a shut-off switch so that you can turn off the system when you don’t want to use it. Because there are no batteries, it means no charging, which means you are helping to save the environment.

WANT A LESS EXPENSIVE OPTION?

While the SON 28 dynamo hub is one of the nicest you can buy, it isn’t for everyone. We can build the dynamo wheel with either the Shimano or Panasonic dynamo hubs to reduce the cost. Ask us about this same build with a less expensive lighting system, or no dynamo system at all.
