Larkspur 2: One of Bicycling Magazine's 50 Best Bikes of the Year

The editors at Bicycling wrote reviews of what they feel are the best bikes of the year, including our new Larkspur 2.

"The Larkspur 2 is a comfortable, cruisy, mixtie-inspired bike that delivers big doses of vitamin F(un). It’s built around a tough steel frame and fork that’s not scared of rough paths or (vaccines willing) pub crawls. The disc brakes, dropper post, 1x drivetrain, and wide knobby tires are borrowed from mountain bikes and add to the Larkspur’s go- anywhere capability. Most people will probably use it as a townie, and it’s great at that, too. Its step-through frame lets you rest at stoplights with your feet on the ground."
