Our popular Transit hybrid bike gets a sleek style upgrade, with the latest components and new hydroformed frame and forks for a streamlined profile.

Whether it’s a weekend bike path cruise, regular commute to work or pushing yourself on fitness rides - the Transit is the perfect bike for all-round everyday use. Agile, comfortable, efficient and fun for however you like to ride.

This versatile bike is built on a new lightweight hydroformed 6061 aluminium alloy frame with integrated headset; and features all the mounts you need to rig your ride with fenders, mudguards and pannier racks for luggage.

The geometry is designed for a nimble but balanced bike, with a comfortable posture to handle less-than-perfect urban roads and paths.

This is a bike for everyday use but thoughtfully designed in ways you may not even notice - the Transit will simply corner with ease, and quickly get you where you need to go in comfort.

Proven Shimano Tourney 21-speed gearing provides ample range to climb hills confidently, shift reliably and also get up to serious speed when you push it.

The Transit runs on wide 40 millimetre commuter tyres, fitted to durable double-wall alloy rims with quick release hubs to withstand the rigours of urban riding.

This bike is available in a range of colourways, and in unisex or a step-through WSD frame design. WSD or Women Specific Design is an approach to building bikes that considers female proportions to produce a bike more suited to a female rider.

Key Features:

  • Lightweight hydroformed 6061 aluminium alloy frame with integrated headset and braze-on mounts for pannier racks and mudguards.
  • Smooth and reliable Shimano EZ-Fire Plus 21-speed gearing.
  • Durable and lightweight double walled alloy rims with quick release hubs.
  • Fast rolling Kenda 700x40c tyres.

    Good value but not great

    Bike was delivered quickly, assembly was straight forward. Gears and brakes needed a lot of adjustment, front derailer was badly aligned. Tourney rear gear system but the front derailer is a no name brand. Bike is nice to ride once setup and tuned.
