REI Novara Transfer Commuter Bicycle

REI's Award-Winning Novara Transfer Commuter Bike
|
Description: For the second year in a row, our Novara Transfer bike has won Bicycling Magazine's Editor Choice Award for best commuter bike! It was also featured in Newsweek\'s 2007 Holiday Gift Guide. Ride on. --Transfer is fully outfitted with rack, fenders, lights and kickstand, for a ride that\'s hassle-free no matter the weather, time of day or road surface --Aluminum frame is lightweight and stiff for easy lifting and quick acceleration, yet plenty strong to withstand heavy loads and rough roads --New for 2007, the bright LP50 headlight is powered by a generator in the front hub; battery-powered Cateye tail light provides rear visibility --Just get on and ride, no fancy shoes required—alloy platform pedals accommodate a variety of shoes.
After its initial break-in period you might notice your
bicycle performing less responsively than the day you brought it home.
Not to worry, this is typical of all new bicycles and simply reflects
that cables have stretched or their housings have seated themselves
into final position. To keep running at peak performance, all REI
bicycles come with a FREE warranty tune-up, which should be
accomplished between the first 100-200 miles of riding or after the
first two months if you\'re accumulating miles less quickly. Contact
your nearest REI bike shop for details and an appointment for this
important service. Visit www.REI.com for sizing information about the
Novara Transfer Commuter Bike.
