Cruisers with Nexus 7/8 and handbrakes only
Hello
Title tells it all. I know, someone will say that they are not real beachcruisers. I ask anyway. I havenīt seen any, do they exist?

BikesDirect has the Mango Logboard 8. This is an aluminum cruiser with a stretched wheelbase, linear-pull brakes, and Nexus 8-speed gearing.

Any frame you can spread wider, will do , so steel , not aluminum ..
it does not have to be shipped from the factory with the exact parts of your dreams, You can have things changed ..

it's been a few years back, but someone showed a raleigh with a 7sp igh. i remember it because i had the exact same bike (paintscheme wise) with a 7 sp derailleur. both as far as i know were stock.

if i did this right, it's posts 83 and 84. mines been altered a little
, but you can tell they were pretty much the same bike with different drive trains. always thought that was kinda odd.

I removed the 7 speed derailleur from my Firmstrong Urban and replaced it with a Nexus 7. Mine has coaster brakes, though--- plus, I moved the front brake to the right hand side. It works fine.
