Electra Townie Balloon 8i bike review

Electra produced the Townie Balloon 8i bike in 2010 and can be classified as a Commuter bicycle.
Electra Commuter Townie Balloon 8i can be found in one single color which is Ebony.
This bike is equiped with 26 x 2.35 Schwalbe Fat Frank tires and Stainless spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Painted Alloy, 36-hole. Electra equiped this exact model with Shimano Nexus BR-IM50 Roller Brake brakes, Shimano Nexus Alloy 4-finger levers braking system and Front: Shimano Nexus HB-IM40, Rear: Shimano Nexus 8 speed Internal hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Electra used 6061-T6 alloy material for the frame. Alloy custom bend, 25.5" x 5" high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Townie Balloon 8i to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Adjustable Forged Alloy 25.4mm Quill.
For the smoothest biking experience Forged Alloy, 170mm, 44 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to KMC Z72 Rustproof chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Electra, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano Revo gear shift levers.
