Beach Cruiser Bikes

If you live in the Isle of Palms or plan to stay there long-term, you can’t go wrong with a beach cruiser. These durable bikes are excellent for daily rides, commuting, or exploring everything the region offers.

Beach cruiser bikes, such as the Priority Coast or the Priority Start, differ from standard city bicycles by their more rugged construction and relaxed riding position. They are designed to take on coastal environments with these useful features:

• Durable materials. Most beach cruiser bikes use materials like aluminum or stainless steel to improve their resistance to rust and corrosion. They’re made to last in salty and sandy environments, even if you go biking on the beach every day.

• Simple construction and easy maintenance. With their simple, lightweight build, beach cruisers are a breeze to maintain. All you need to keep your beach bike running is to clean and lubricate the chain, wipe your frame and saddle regularly, and store it indoors or under covers. This protects your bike from wear and tear and exposure to salty air.

• Primarily designed for flat surfaces. Unlike bicycles intended for hilly terrain or road riding, most beach cruising models feature simple, single-speed gearboxes suited for riding on beaches and flat surfaces.

• Comfortable ride. Whether you ride on the asphalt or the sand, you can expect a beach cruiser to be an easy and comfortable ride. They feature fat, deeply treaded tires for stability on any surface, a relaxed upright riding position, and extra-padded saddles for maximum comfort.

• Child-sized models available. Are you looking to ride in style with your children? Kids’ beach cruiser bikes like the Retrospec Chatham Kids are available! These models are built with the same materials and build quality as their adult-sized equivalents.

City Cruising Bikes

The Charleston area is home to a fast-growing community of bicycle riders. 1.8% of the city’s working population commutes by bicycle, and many riding spots and opportunities, such as the West Ashley Greenway or the Lowcountry Lowline, are either available or under development.

Whether you like to ride bikes on the weekends or use yours for the daily commute, you need a city cruiser you can count on every time you ride through the city. Quality city-cruising bicycles like the Retrospec Beaumont and Beaumont ST are recognizable with the following features:

• Stylish design. Many of the best bicycles for city riding feature stylish, European-inspired designs. They combine good looks with practicality with features like sturdy rear-mounted racks and a durable, low-maintenance steel frame.

• Smooth-shifting gearbox. The best city cruisers have versatile gearboxes like the 7-speed Shimano Tourney. They give you the ideal range of gears to take on any terrain, from flat urban streets to hilly roads and trails.

• Easy daily riding. Bikes made for daily riding should be comfortable above all else. Lightweight pedals let you get up to riding speed quickly, while comfortable grips and ergonomic saddles keep you comfortable on the weekend trip or the work commute.
