The perfect vehicle for your daily adventure. The result of uniting Electra Bicycle Company's Townie design with our own sport utility sensibilities, this is perhaps the most comfortable utilitarian bike of all time. The 21 speeds let you ride pretty much anywhere.
The shape of the Townie allows you to ride with a wide open stance, yet pedal efficiently. The big bouncy wheels take up shock from bumpy roads. Altogether, it makes a Sport Utility Bike that's fun and attractive to ride around town.
Please Note: When purchasing an SUB from Xtracycle, please provide a shipping address for your favorite local bike shop. We have a commitment to uphold with the manufacturer of these bikes that a bike shop carrying liability insurance will build these bicycles. We apologize but we cannot ship complete SUB bicycles to individuals.

The ladie's frame is currently out of stock
The ladies’ frame’s very low step-over height is convenient for stopping and for getting on and off. That’s especially helpful in town, with stops at stores and when you have your S.U.B. loaded. Women and men can equally appreciate the convenience of avoiding the Giant Leg Swing.
BUT… While perfectly capable of handling regular loads, the geometry of a ladies’ frame is not as strong as the diamond frame. If you think you’ll be carrying 100-pound-plus cargoes with frequency over the life of your bike, you should get the diamond frame. This goes for all S.U.B. models and brands we sell.
The Sport Utility Bike ships in two boxes and requires significant assembly. We are required by law and our conscience to ship to your local bike shop to build. Make sure you specify the address of your local bike shop in the ship to address. Oh, and don't forget to let them know it's coming.
