Sparta

Some people prefer sports cars; some prefer station wagons; and some prefer SUV's. The Sparta is the SUV of bikes. Sturdy, practical and ready to haul your gear. Suspension seatpost and fork soak up the rough stuff. Adjustable riding position means you can make it easy on the arms and back. Two frame styles and curvy top-tube make it easy to throw a leg over. And an aluminum rear rack makes it easy to haul books or beer, or both.
