BENNO
BALLOONER 8D ROADSTER
$999.99 $599.99
Benno's Ballooner bike perfectly walks the tightrope between comfortable cruiser bikes and practical urban commuters. The frame geometry, stationary stem matched with wingback handlebars, and wide seat gives you the moderate position needed to bear down and get up those hills while allowing for a more relaxed position on flat terrain when the view is too good to miss. Beautiful 2.35" tires are just wide enough to make streetcar tracks less scary and take the grimace out of rough roads under construction, but still narrow enough to get a ton of wind in your hair on breakaway stretches full of green lights.
The Ballooner's not just a pretty face - Benno doesn't skimp on attention to technical detail. An 8-speed Shimano Altus drivetrain gives you more than enough gears for city riding and rim brakes add sturdy, reliable stopping power. The aluminum alloy frame gives you lightweight portability, while the steel fork absorbs bumps where it matters to take the stress of rough roads off your wrists. Melted down, all these features combine to help the Ballooner punch way above its weight when comparing it to a vintage beach cruiser bike.
With a bike this comfortable and fun, you can ride dawn till dusk and enjoy every minute of it.
