The CB2 Bicycle was Designed in Collaboration with Republic Bikes
Meghan Young — March 31, 2011 — Eco
Everyone is jumping on the eco-friendly bandwagon and now, one home furnishing retail store is following the suit of fashion houses by releasing their own CB2 bicycle. Inspired by the classic Dutch design, otherwise known as the grandpa bike, this new addition to the cycle world is both practical and stylish.
Created in collaboration with Republic Bikes, the CB2 bicycle comes in two versions: The abuelo (for the guy) and abuela (for the girl). These his and her bikes make the perfect addition to eco-consious couple lifestyles.
Both CB2 bicycle models are 3-speed city bikes with cargo racks with bungee straps. The abuela woman's version comes with an additional skirt guard on the rear wheel and a fully enclosed sprocket and chain. The CB2 bicycle is available in only one color scheme.
