I would have to agree, Electra or check out the Felt Bikes range. Not sure if they import into Australia but they make some super nice cruisers.
ratrodbikes.com if you are keen on the originals
whats the go with cruiser bikes
is it like when your too fat and old to ride a short board so you get a mal
i smell blood, my blood
HAHAHA thats classic.
Nah I think its because they are badass. You dont need to wear spandex, look like a homo and they are actually FUN to ride.
Plus I like to pass roadies on my cruiser bike and ring my bell on the way past just to **** with them.
Lacey some people hit the mid life with heaps of cashola some dont so a pushie is mine.
I suffer from a crap back and was told to ride a bike,problem my back would freeze after 30mins until I rode a cruiser style bike.
Well Im 28 and have ridden a beach cruiser for about 10 years, so you dont need to be old to ride one. Plus how many babes do you see on beach cruisers. I dont know about you but I see ALOT!!
Felt seem to be doing a smaller range of cruisers these days.
That Hot Wheels thing looks good hey?
Biggest problem with cruisers - is that they aren't particularly well set up ergonomically...
I always have to slap myself, and remind myself that I would never ride the damn thing... My Mountain Bike is set up perfectly for me, and would be far easier to cover 2-3-4-5km on it...
But I love the look of cruisers!
Ahh Simondo I beg to differ, I ride mine 17kms to work each day. You need to find a good one. The crappy ones have a short top tube and arent very good. The electras are setup nice.
One of my favorites is the Felt Slater. Here's one with a cool motor addition!

Just had a 30 min cruise around the hood at sun down and a few others doing the same,beers cold tastes good
I love the Felt Hotwheels-68 (to go with the Rincon 68!).
This is actually in the category of Custom Cruiser.
I agree, those Electra Cruisers are probably set up really well!
