Takara Kabuto Single Speed Road Bike, Blue, Small/50cm
The kabuto is all about keeping things simple and getting it done without breaking the bank. At the heart of the kabuto you-feet ll find a strong hand crafted steel frame with horizontal dropouts that can handle the abuse of the big city. City riders told us that they didn-feett need derailleur-feet’s so we listened and outfitted the kabuto with a flip flop bug so you can run it as a fixed gear or in standard freewheel single speed Mode without having to worry about adjustments to temperamental components. The 32 hole alloy wheels roll on loud Kenda 700 x 32 tires that are capable of withstanding less than perfect roads. Front and rear alloy side pull brakes round out this spectacular Model.

Adjust, adjust, adjust! For a mere $150, this is a great bike to have. I have owned two hybrid bicycles in the $400-$500 dollar range (Both stolen, so I decided by a more inexpensive bike), and this bike compares favorably in many areas. The bike came in a long box in several parts; several tools are needed to build it, mainly a few socket wrenches of different sizes and allen wrenches of different sizes. The manufacturer had pre-built some parts, so there’s no need to run cables or anything. The wheels have very low…
It’s not a great bike. I ride about six miles a day It’s not a great bike. I ride about six miles a day. It weighs about thirty pounds fully assembled, which I should have realized before I bought it. The first time I rode it both of the inner tubes went flat. After about six months of riding, I’m having to replace the wheels because some of the places where the spokes connect to the rims have rusted through, so it is impossible to tighten the spokes to true the wheels. I’ve kept the bike inside so this is not acceptable at all. The spokes are…
