Stylish. Fun. Simple. Where did you get the inspiration for your product? The 7-speed PUBLIC C7 step-thru frame bike is inspired by trips to Europe, and in particular, visits to Amsterdam where the curved, open, step-thru bike frame design is commonly seen. The PUBLIC C7 is ideally suited for city commutes, casual riding with friends and weekend jaunts through the park. What differentiates your product from similar products out there? The PUBLIC C7 is built with a high quality, durable steel frame and comes complete with matching fenders, chain guard, and painted rims. Front and rear rack mounts are also standard, ensuring you will always be able to carry your much-needed items if you add an optional rear rack. Our PUBLIC C7 offers a wide range of gears that can handle just about any hill (or flat) and the twist shifter allows for super easy shifting allowing you to enjoy your ride. We are also using powerful dual pivot brakes and alloy rims to ensure great stopping power rain or shine. Tell us about the best and most challenging parts of the creation process. We worked hard to make sure the C7 included the best features at an affordable price: Shimano drivetrain & twist shifter, strong dual pivot brakes, puncture-resistant cream tires, matching fenders, chainguard, and rims, and an elegant step-through frame with a lifetime guarantee. It was a challenge selecting the gear ratios to make riding easy on flat and moderately hilly streets, and being able to tackle San Francisco-like hills, but we're thrilled that so many happy customers tell us they love the PUBLIC C7.
