Description: Churchill, our classic Gents model reflects the sturdy muscular contours of the male physique. This traditional vintage cycle can typically be used as part of your everyday life ? convenience, durability and reliability is emphasized throughout all elements of the design. Churchill comes fully equipped with hub gears, which have an enclosed 3 speed Sturmey Archer/SRAM gear mechanism.
Enclosed Hub Gears
Enclosing the gears protects the machinery from the weather, hence they involve much lower maintenance than the derailleur systems found on most bikes. Other advantages of internal gears are that they are very simple on the outside and come with a chain guard. They are therefore much cleaner, allowing you to cycle in your everyday clothing rather than having to wear specialist cycle gear.
Upright comfort
The hand built ergonomic design of Churchill is due to the overall frame dynamics being in complete synergy and perfect proportion. The sit-up-and-beg style provides a posture-friendly and relaxed riding position and gives a high vantage point from which to view the traffic. It also makes it easy to look behind you and take in all the sights and sounds of the city like that 19th century Parisian - the fl?ur. If you want comfort, practicality and your riding style is more of the chilled out variety ? and you want to ensure that you arrive at your destination in style ? then go for our Churchill classic model.
Fully equipped
Our Churchill classic bicycle is fully equipped, which means that it comes with mudguards, coat guard, chain guard, enclosed hub driven lights, a double stand, bell and a rack as standard. Such bicycles can be easily and seamlessly integrated into your everyday routine, whether you use it for commuting, shopping or simply getting from A-B.
Lightweight
With all of their special features, traditional classic bicycles tend to be heavier that mountain bikes, etc. We have therefore equipped Churchill with the highest quality Chromoly steel, as opposed to the traditional Hi-ten steel frames you find on other steel cycles today. This reduces the weight of our Gents bicycle to only 19 kg and makes it a perfect fit for the ?traffic jamming UK?.
