An affordable lightweight, steel-frame urban bike, the 7-speed PUBLIC Bikes V7 is perfect for both everyday commuting and casual riding. Offering a solid, comfortable upright riding position, the PUBLIC V7 features a classic diamond frame geometry design with a sloping top tube that provides more stand-over clearance. The Shimano 7-speed rear derailleur and twist shifter allow fast and easy gear changes, and the Kenda kwest 700 x 35c tires are wide enough to handle curbs and potholes but narrow enough for speed. The dual pivot alloy brake calipers combine with lightweight alloy rims for safe, reliable braking rain or shine. The PUBLIC V7 also features upright handlebars that provide a relaxed riding position for riders of all experience levels, a hi-tensile steel frame, wide memory foam saddle, and full alloy pedals with grippy rubber surface for riding with boots, Pumps, flip-flops, or anything in between. It also comes fully appointed with color-matching fenders and chain Guard plus a kickstand. Carry all your daily essentials with an optional matching cargo rack on the front or rear (sold separately), or add your favorite bike basket. (For safe riding, PUBLIC Bikes sold on require bike shop assembly by a professional bike mechanic). backed by a lifetime PUBLIC frameset warranty. Public is a San Francisco-based bicycle and gear company that designs European-inspired urban bikes and accessories that make riding more enjoyable, practical, and fun.

Beautiful...and Great for San Francisco Commute
I recently moved to San Francisco, and this bike is great for my daily commute. The 7 speeds allow me to cruise up and down the SF hills and with the fenders and chainguard, I never worry about getting dirty. I get tons of compliments on the color and the design every day that I ride. Seriously. My commute would be a lot faster if I didn't stop to chat with all the folks who comment on my bike and ask me where I got it. I recommend PUBLIC to all of my friends because this bike is great and because they have a great selection in other kinds of bikes, too.

I love my PUBLIC V7
I love my PUBLIC V7. With 7 gears, it's the perfect all-season get around commuter bike and I've found that it requires minimal maintenance. It even comes standard with a kickstand, chain guard and color matching fenders! I do strongly recommend adding the color matching rear rack to fully compliment the bike. The bike does ships unassembled, so take PUBLIC 's word and have your local bike shop complete assembly to ensure everything is working order before you take it out for your first spin. I can't thank PUBLIC enough for designing a bike that cater to those of us who just looking to casually ride! Keep up the good work.

the green color is so beautiful and eye catching especially in person
Just look at this stunning bike, the green color is so beautiful and eye catching especially in person. Be cautioned you won't be able to go that far without receiving a million compliments : ) Easy to ride. smooth and comfortable. The drop handlebars are nice if you don't like that super upright ride you get with the more beach cruiser style handlebars but still have a comfortable upright seating position (I don't like the super aggressive hunched over handlebars).

Beautiful, functional commuter or recreational bike
This a beautiful British Racing Green bike gets a lot of compliments by my friends and fellow bicyclists. The 7 speeds works great in hilly SF. I like that my riding position is upright so I don't have to hunch my back while riding. The steel frame feels light but durable.

I think they really only changed the handlebars and the rainbow stripes but for some reason the bike looks and feels super sleek
Can't get over these new models. I think they really only changed the handlebars and the rainbow stripes but for some reason the bike looks and feels super sleek. Love the way this rides on the street, I couldn't be happier
