Electra Amsterdam Balloon bike review

Electra produced the Amsterdam Balloon bike in 2009 and can be classified as a Commuter bicycle.
Electra Commuter Amsterdam Balloon can be found in one single color which is Black.
This bike is equiped with 26 x 2.35" Schwalbe Fat Frank tires and Stainless spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Alloy, 36-hole. Electra equiped this exact model with Shimano Nexus Roller Brake brakes, Alloy 4 Finger reach adjust levers braking system and Front: Shimano Nexus BR-IM41, Rear: Shimano Nexus BR-IM70 hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Electra used High Tensile Steel material for the frame. Alloy custom bend riser high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Amsterdam Balloon to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of 3D Forged.
For the smoothest biking experience Forged Alloy with chainguard, 42 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to KMC Z72 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Electra, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano Alivio Rapid Fire gear shift levers.
