Description
The Electra Townie® defined the comfort bike category 20+ years ago. More than just a frame, it’s an icon setting the standard in style, simplicity and fun. Complete with Flat Foot Technology®, enjoy an upright seating position that lets you see the world better and plant your feet flat on the ground whenever you want. Equipped with lights and fenders, the Townie is the perfect run-around-town bike.
DERAILLEUR GEAR SYSTEM
Derailleur or “D” refers to an external shifting mechanism. It consists of a chain, multiple precision sprockets and a derailleur to “derail” the chain from one sprocket to another. It allows for quick transitions and more gearing options. Just remember to pedal while shifting and you’re good to go!
EQUIPPED
Equipped, or “EQ” as we say at Electra, simply means your ride comes with some sweet added benefits. Color-matched fenders keep you clean and dry while front and rear LED lights help you see and be seen.
FLAT FOOT TECHNOLOGY
You really need to ride an Electra bike to feel the magic of Flat Foot Technology, but overall the benefits are comfort and control. It provides an upright, relaxed riding position with proper leg extension that allows you to plant your feet flat on the ground whenever you want or need to.
