Brooklyn Bicycle Co. designed the Bedford around classic city-bike aesthetics while still delivering modern functionality and surprisingly strong performance. The steel frame provides a smooth, forgiving ride that handles rough urban pavement extremely well, while the upright riding position keeps commuting relaxed and comfortable.
Its Shimano 8-speed drivetrain gives riders enough gearing for varied city terrain without becoming overly complicated, and puncture-resistant tires reduce the chances of roadside flats during daily riding.
For urban riders who value both aesthetics and functionality, the Bedford 8 delivers tremendous value.
