Electra Townie Original 8i bike review

Electra produced the Townie Original 8i bike in 2009 and can be classified as a Cruiser bicycle.
Electra Cruiser Townie Original 8i can be found in a few colors, among these colors Charcoal Metallic .
This bike is equiped with 26 x 2.00" Electra Semi-Slick tires and Stainless spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Alloy Double Wall, 32-hole/36-hole. Electra equiped this exact model with Forged Alloy Linear Pull brakes, Alloy 4 Finger reach adjust levers braking system and Front: Alloy low flange, Rear: Shimano Nexus 8 speed Internal hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Electra used 6061-T6 aluminum material for the frame. Alloy custom bend riser high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Townie Original 8i to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Forged Alloy.
For the smoothest biking experience Forged Alloy, 44 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to KMC chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Electra, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano Revo twist gear shift levers.
