If you haven’t purchased a new bicycle in the last 5-years, you’re in for some major sticker shock. A fully spec’d out Specialized S-Works Enduro SL Carbon full suspension mountain bike has an MSRP of $7,700. Too bad the Cash-For-Clunkers program doesn’t apply because you could trade up for a really really fancy two-wheeler. On the brightside if you’re hunting for an stylish affordable bicycle to wheel around on, it’s nice to know a company like Linus Bike exists.
Founders Adam McDermott and Chad Kushner, both natives of South Africa, started Linus Bike to bring simple designs and functional bikes to the masses. They utilized their experiences traveling abroad riding all kinds of bikes to design a stylish functional bicycle. Check out the Roadster Classic (pictured) for single speed joy, or the 3-speed Roadster Sport if your legs aren’t quite up to par. The Linus Bike showroom is located in Venice, California. Prices start at $359.
