Looking for a cruiser with gears.
My Scwinn cruiser single speed was stolen. I miss it. I'm looking for a new one, but with gears. 3 or more. Any advice on a good one with fenders and a rear rack?

This is my steel Electra 7D Its my 3rd Electra and Ive been pretty happy with it. My wife has a Huffy Panama jack Cruiser (though I've seen them with gears) the build quality is higher. After the fenders and rack are added its more expensive but I think a much nicer bike

Worksman cycles also has geared options. Weight is over 40# I believe.

I think my Electra was 37? but I topped the 40 pound mark after the brooks saddle and bag.. At that point who cares

This one's a tank , even the the tires add four or five pounds to it . But that just makes it ride smoother . I’m no lightweight either , so a few more pounds doesn’t matter on a cruiser .
They’re not made for racing .

This is the 2nd Matte black bike with chrome fenders ive seen today. Ive been debating getting fenders and now Im torn between the chrome or the black
