Jamis EARTH CRUISER 1 (2012)

We took the very best elements of the classic beach cruiser—balloon tires, a relaxed upright seating position, timelessly classic styling—and modernized them. So instead of a heavy, klunky bike that’s more fun to look at than ride, our Earth Cruisers are easier to ride, easier to pedal, more durable and waaaay more fun, while preserving all the streetwise style of those shiny 1950s cruisers.

Features like lightweight alloy rims, road-smoothing comfort tread tires and memory foam saddles make these faster, more comfy rides than their historical forbears. You can even have a rustproof, lightweight aluminum frame on Earth Cruiser 3 and 1, with the added versatility of a 3-speed internally-geared drivetrain and coaster brake.��
