Size: 28″
Promising review: “This is my baby. I love it to pieces. I love it so much. The ride is fantastic. I ride it on roads with high traffic that can use some major construction, but the tires on this are thick enough to deal with the bumps that my thinner tires couldn’t handle before. I also ride it through a residential area with some pretty big hills: it’s not a problem and the gears help a lot. Plus, the brakes are heavenly. I feel completely in control going down steep hills and I’ve never had a problem stopping right where I want to. I’ve gone on a 16-mile ride nonstop from one end of LA to the other on this bike and it was great.” —Amazon Customer
