| Features | The Hudson was designed to ease the transition from non-cycling to cycling for those
who haven't been on a bike in some time. The laid back seat tube and lowered bottom
bracket height allows riders to position their saddles for efficient leg extension
and still easily reach the ground while seated for balance when stopped. The longer
chainstays and wheelbase in tandem with the lower center of gravity offers a very
smooth, stable ride.
Our step-through version is exceptionally easy to mount thanks to the low BB height
and super-low position of the S-bent top tube. No more swinging a leg over the rear
wheel, or pulling a knee up to the chest to step over the top tube to mount a bike.
The lightweight & durable 6061 aluminum frame features formed top and down
tubes, S-bend seatstays, internal cup head tube, and internal cable routing for
exceptionally good looks and increased strength.
All frame sizes (and there are six to assure the best possible fit for greater comfort
and more secure handling) offer an extra long head tube and hi-rise handlebars for a
comfortable, upright ride position.
Slidepad's new braking system simplifies stopping by requiring only one brake lever to
operate both front & rear brakes. And it makes riding safer too by reducing the risk
of front wheel lock-up. Slidepad uses the momentum of the rear wheel to actively
modulate the front brake, enabling smooth, controlled stopping.
The alloy crankset features an outer-ring chainguard. With another full length
chainguard running the length of the chain from seatstays to chaining, clothing is well
protected from the chain.
Our smooth-rolling 26 x 1.95" Sport Comfort tires are more comfortable to ride
around town than full knobby mountain bike tires, and feature cool looking skinwall or
whitewall sidewalls depending on frame color.
The Hudson Sport offers a 7-speed Shimano twist-shifting, single chainring drivetrain
that's simple to operate (only one shifter to command!) and is lighter than multiple
chainring bikes.
Our super plush saddle features memory foam padding for optimum support with
maximum comfort. The slip-resistant suede-type top prevents sliding and the
burnished side panels reduce leg friction while pedaling. Elastomer springs help soak
up high resonance road vibrations. Offered in gender specific sizes.
The sealed cartridge bottom bracket & sealed headset improve performance and
reduce maintenance.
Our long quilled, short-reach stem and 3" rise handlebars offer a supremely
comfortable, upright ride position that's easy on neck & wrists.
