A new model for 2005, this is the bike for the commuter who likes to ride in the fast lane. Fully equipped for commuting, straight out of the box. Same proven frame as the Volpe. 9 speed Shimano Tiagra drive train. Shimano canti brakes. Dynamo-driven headlight with 3 watt, 12 volt bulb, unique in the US market. Fenders and rack mounts. Tires with 3M reflective sidewall stripe make wheel reflectors unnecessary.
