PUBLIC C7 - 9th Avenue
$850.00  (IN STOCK)

The 9th Avenue puts a new spin on our Standard PUBLIC C7 in cream with the addition of a Brooks leather honey saddle, brown PUBLIC grips, cherry wood Peterboro basket, our signature red PUBLIC Federico bell and red cable housing. This classic color combination is one of the most popular. It is also featured in last year's Pottery Barn Gift Guide.

Please let us know your size in the shipping notes during check out: Standard (4'8"-5'5") or Large (5'6"-6'0"

The PUBLIC C7 is an ultra affordable, lightweight, easy-shifting, seven-speed bike designed for stop-and-go city riding. With its curved, open, step-through frame design, it is often referred to as a Dutch bike. It is especially well suited for those who wear skirts or prefer not to swing a leg over a typical frame crossbar. Old-school aesthetic charm with modern components. Reliable and utilitarian enough to be your everyday, rain or shine, commuter workhorse. Chic enough to turn heads on city streets. Color options include our classic Orange and Cream.

Signature PUBLIC features include lightweight, durable steel-frame. Guaranteed for life. You can add a PUBLIC rack to carry a pannier, basket, or bungee your items. Featherweight aluminum chain guard and sturdy steel fenders keep your clothes clean. The easy-shifting, seven-speed city derailleur system takes you virtually anywhere and back, even up and down the toughest hills of San Francisco. Put simply, the PUBLIC C7 rides like butter.

We make delivery and assembly easy for you, including our unique Ready to Ride option that allows anyone to assemble a PUBLIC bike at their home or office in minutes (tools included).

Details

  • Comfortable: Steel tubing and frame geometry make for a softer ride than with other materials. Seats are designed for normal clothing.
  • Ergonomic: Upright handlebars keep you looking forward, not down. They're also kinder to your back.
  • Practical: Kickstands so you don't have to prop your bike up against a lamppost. And chain guards to keep grease off your fresh, clean clothes.
  • Modern: The Shimano 7-speed rear derailleur and Revo twist shifter brings state-of-the-art technology to the shifting system. Changing gears is done with a simple twist of the wrist.
  • Safe Braking:Alloy brakes combine with lightweight alloy rims with machined brake surfaces for quick, safe and controlled stops.
  • City Smart: 35 MM tires are wide enough to handle curbs and potholes but narrow enough for speed.
  • Feet Friendly: Reinforced resin pedals designed wide enough to ride with boots, pumps, flip-flops, or anything in between.
  • Durable: The hi-tensile steel frame is guaranteed for life.
  • Love At First Ride Or Your Money Back: The ride itself may be the best thing about your PUBLIC bike. Which is why we offer our Love at First Ride guarantee: If you do not love your bike from the very first ride, well take it back. Period.

Delivery: Your bike is ready to ship within 3-5 business days.We'll deliver it to your door.
