at McClains Cycle Favorite Ride: Neighborhood, woods Summary: This is a very comfortable bike. It is also very slow however I love it. I love looking at it and everything about it. I have the female version in leafy green which is a stunning color. I do need to get a road bike for competition but this is my favorite. Strengths: Comfort, aesthetics, fun. Weaknesses: Slow

at Local Shop Model Year: 2007 Favorite Ride: Townie Original 21d Bike Setup: Stock except for a $10 Schwinn odometer from Wal-Mart and a water rack. Summary: Great bike, Easy to ride, comfortable and it looks cool too. No problems to date and I have ridden it every single day since I purchased it. I was a bit dismayed from the lady who said it wasn't tall enough for her long legs. Well, I'm 6'7" and by lifting the seat pretty high it fits like a dream. I haven't changed any of the stock items and am pleased with the bike as is. I admit I'm not a bike snob so I'm not going to complain about anything but there isn't anything to complain about. Yeah, my tail was sore for the first two weeks but that's because I hadn't ridden a bike for a while. No after a few hundred miles may tail isn't sore and it's the same seat I started with. All of my rides are consist of several uphill sections and this bike knocks them out like with ease. It fits on my rack without any trouble and once I figured out that I had to anticipate my front gear shifting it pedals great too. If you want to look like Lance Armstrong and ride hunched over and get a great look at the grime on the pavement then don't by this bike. It's only for the upright rider set. Super, Super bike. Strengths: Comfort, styling, comfort, ease of use, comfort,fun to ride, comfort and comfort. Great hill climber. And comfortable too. Weaknesses: None that I've found but from reading reviews I would suggest buying from a local shop and skip the big box store. Similar Products Used: Schwinn (great bike but not for me), Giant, Kona. Dumped them all when I found the Townie.

at Local Bike shop Favorite Ride: Townie Electra 21 speed Bike Setup: Townie Electra, Blue, 21 speed Summary: This is a bike that rides like as smooth as glass! It is the easiest bike I have ever ridden! I first bought a $1500 mountain bike and rode it for a month or so before, trying out my best friend's new Townie. (I had been making fun of her "funny looking"" bike for sometime before trying it out) When I went back to my bike, I thought what on earth was I thinking when I bought this thing and why in the world did I pay so much money for a most unpleasant ride? Now, I am taking my mountain bike back and trading for a Townie that cost 1/4 of the first bike! Can't wait! My wrists and butt are thanking me. Strengths: Easy to ride. Fun. Cool looking. Weaknesses: Trying to change gears on an incline is nearly impossible.
