A break from the norm with this bike, with a steel frame used rather than aluminium, and 29 inch wheels inspired by the new trend in mountain bikes for a cool urban bike for commuting or getting around.

The steel frame looks good and is comfortable to ride, with a Cro-Moly fork used and 29" wheels to roll faster than 26" wheels. These take a little longer to get up to speed, but then roll along faster.

Shimano Acera/ Deore mechs and Acera shifters offer reliable 8 speed shifting and used with a Truvativ Triple chainset gives 24 gears. The Tektro cable disc brakes offer good stopping power in all conditions.

The Muirwoods is a popular bike for getting around the city, and also for longer rides with its comfortable ride.
