For sale: a bike that shifts gears without gears. Yes, really. The Enviolo hub gives you stepless, infinite shifting! No clunky derailleur, no "which number am I in," just twist and go, even while sitting still at a red light like some kind of smug commuting wizard.
Paired with a Gates carbon belt drive instead of a chain, so no grease, no rust, no dramatic pant-leg incidents. It just runs. Quietly. Smugly.
Hydraulic disc brakes for stopping power that doesn't ask questions, and a dynamo-powered headlamp and taillight, so the bike makes its own electricity while you pedal, like a tiny smug power plant. No batteries to remember, no charging cables, no excuses.
Rides on 700x32 puncture-resistant tires with reflective sidewalls, so you glow ominously at night without trying. Aluminum frame, upright commuter geometry, riser bars. Built for "I would like my back to still work when I'm 60," not for racing anyone.
Composite fenders included, because arriving at brunch with a skunk stripe up your spine is not a personality trait.
Size small, gently used, all the above intact. Local hills won, rider surrendered, bike deserves someone less easily defeated by elevation.
Throwing in a black Brooks saddle, barely broken in (it's basically brand new). Also included: a set of Electra Classic faux leather ergo grips, because your palms deserve better than stock foam.
Great bike. Slightly defeated former owner. Your gain.
Price firm.
Cash only.
You pick up; I'll meet you at the Manhattan Beach Target parking lot.
