Cardio. Commute. One bike.
5 miles each way is 400 to 700 calories round trip. The Roebling and Lorimer are tuned for the kind of mixed-effort riding that turns your commute into your workout.
Stationary bikes burn calories. Commute bikes also get you to work.
If you're paying for a gym AND commuting, you're solving two problems separately. There's a better way.
- $50 to $200 per month for a stationary bike at a gym you visit 3 times.
- 30 minutes of cardio inside, then 30 minutes commuting in a car or bus on top.
- Annual contracts that quietly bill you long after you stop going.
- Same calories. Same time. Less life lived outside.
A bike commute is a workout you have to do anyway.
Built for mixed-effort riding. Every gear, every grade.
The Roebling 9-speed and Lorimer 9-speed are tuned for the kind of riding that's both transportation and exercise. Wide gear range, lightweight frame, real components.

"My commute used to be a thing I had to do. Now it's the best part of my day. 4.7 miles each way, 9.4 miles a day, $0 a month, 6 days a week. Try replacing that with a gym."

About 200 to 350 calories at a moderate pace, equivalent to a 30-minute jog. Round-trip on a 5-mile commute, you're at 400 to 700 calories without setting foot in a gym.
On a pedal commuter at a moderate pace under 5 miles, most riders don't need a shower. If you really push for a workout, plan a quick change at work. Many of our riders ride in workout clothes and change once they arrive.
