Raleigh Retroglide bike review

Raleigh produced the Retroglide bike in 2008 and can be classified as a Cruiser bicycle.
Retroglide bike is available in many sizes such as 18 (inches) and womens 17 (inches).
Raleigh Cruiser Retroglide can be found in a few colors, among these colors Amethyst and White, Pear Turquoise and Lt Turquoise, Gloss Black and White and Chocolate and Orange .
This bike is equiped with 26 x 2.125" Kenda Cruiser whitewall tires and Stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Alex Zuma, 36-hole. Raleigh equiped this exact model with Coaster braking system and Front: Alloy Joytech, Rear: Shimano hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Raleigh used Atomic 13 Aluminum material for the frame. Steel Cruiser style high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Retroglide to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Alloy 2-bolt.
For the smoothest biking experience Raleigh Heron, 46 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to KMC Z510 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Raleigh.
