3 speeds: one each for uphill, downhill and flat riding. Believe it or not, biking experts have found that there are more variations than 3. But for all you old school riders out there, "earmuff" it for this one...
Our 3-Speed Cruisers offer better mobility for those who ride want to cruise a few miles or have slightly tougher terrain to navigate. A bike’s number of speeds depends on how many gears a bike uses. We offer several speeds; 3 speed, 6 speed, 7 speed, and 18 speeds to help fit your biking needs. The ability to change gears allow for best power options for your current riding conditions. Low gears make riding uphill easier as its less strain on your joints. Although you are not gaining speed, you are pedaling at a greater rate to keep your momentum going. A higher gear is used for riding down hills. Less pedal action at a higher gives you the ability to keep a higher speed and stay in motion with your tire rotation. Although multi speed bikes offer greater mobility, they can be complicated for some users. If you are a casual rider check out our single speed cruisers. They’ll get you to where you need to go with comfort and ease.
Choosing your gear preference depends on the type of riding you’re planning on doing and the type of terrain you ride on. Three speed bikes are great for hills and someone wanting a bit more than a single speed, and maintain relatively low maintenance. There is no derailleur on a three speed cruiser as it only uses one sprocket. The fully enclosed, internal hub is at the rear of the bicycle and needs little maintenance, allowing you to get up and go and easily tackle minor hills and downward slopes. Bikes with higher gears are for the more avid cyclist. The gears have derailleurs, multiple sprockets that have a lever that moves the chain when switching gears. They require a little more upkeep, but will get you rolling with ease for long treks or over more harsh terrain.
