    Sonoma Women's Chainless Drive Evolution Urban Commuter Bicycle

    Sonoma Women's Chainless Drive Evolution Urban Commuter Bicycle Review



    Sonoma Women's Chainless Drive Evolution Urban Commuter Bicycle Feature

    • Chainless women's bicycle with lightweight aluminum frame and T-shock suspension fork
    • D-Drive system eliminates chain and derailleur for low-maintenance, comfortable riding
    • Chainless system is quieter, smoother, and lasts longer than traditional chain-driven systems
    • Cushioned satin saddle ideal for long rides; front and rear alloy V-brakes
    • High-density dual rubber handgrips; lifetime warranty on frame, fork, and D-Drive system
    Combining the look you want with the features you need, the Sonoma Urban Commuter chainless women's bicycle is sure to give you a great ride every time. The bike packs a variety of commute-friendly features into its sleek, stylish body, including a lightweight aluminum frame that's easy to handle and transport, a sophisticated T-shock fork that absorbs bumps, a cushioned satin seat and ergonomically designed handlebars to ensure a comfortable ride, and high-density dual rubber handgrips that are smooth to the touch.



    The bike's chainless D-Drive system eliminates the trouble-causing chain and derailleur.
    Sonoma's Chainless D-Drive System
    It's the low-maintenance chainless design that really stands out, however. Powering the newest trend in chainless bicycling, the chainless D-Drive system replaces the parts of a bike that cause the most problems--the chain and derailleur. In their place, the D-Drive system uses a drive shaft with a fully enclosed bevel gear system to transmit power from the bike pedals to the rear wheel. Shimano internal gears within the rear wheel help the system run smoothly and quietly while optimizing pedal efficiency. At the same time, the Shimano "twist and go" gear system is responsive and easy to use, so you can shift with the flick of a finger.

    The chainless D-Drive system offers a number of benefits over traditional chain bikes. In addition to delivering a much quieter ride, it keeps you from ruining your favorite clothes while riding to work or getting grease all over your hands while fixing a slipped chain. The D-Drive system is also protected from external elements, so it doesn't require the ongoing cleaning, lubrication, and checkups that a chain-drive bike typically requires. And the internal drive shaft is less likely to sustain damage from falls and road debris, giving it a significantly longer life than a chain. In fact, the D-Drive system carries a warranty that lasts for the life of your bike. Once you experience Sonoma's exclusive D-Drive chainless system, you may never want to ride a chain-driven bicycle again.

    Other features include a handy carrying rack for running errands, 700c Kenda commuting tires, front and rear alloy V-brakes, and plastic platform pedals. Best of all, everything on the bike is backed by either a two-year or lifetime warranty. The Sonoma Urban Commuter comes in a smoky obsidian color.



    The SL-3S35 shifters are conveniently located and responsive.



    Riders will love the convenient rear carrier rack.

    Amazon.com Bicycle Buying Guide

    Finding the Right Bike
    To really enjoy cycling, it's important to find a bicycle that works for you. Here are some things to keep in mind when you're in the market for a new bike:

    The Right Ride
    In general, bikes are broken down into three major categories:

    • Road and Racing Bikes--As a general rule, road and racing are built for speed and longer distances on paved surfaces. Thinner tires, lightweight 29-inch (700c) wheels, and drop bars that allow for a more aerodynamic position are the norm. Most road bikes, regardless of price, offer many gears for tackling both hilly and flat terrain.
    • Mountain Bikes--With their larger tires, hill-friendly gearing, and upright position, mountain bikes are very popular for all types of riding, both on pavement and off. Mountain bikes that are designed specifically for rugged trail use typically feature a suspension fork. Some may have rear suspension, as well. A quick change of the tires on any mountain bike--even one that you use regularly on trails--adds to its versatility and makes it a worthy street machine.
    • Comfort/Cruiser Bikes--For tooling around on bike paths, light trails, or for cruising a quiet beach-side lane, comfort/cruiser bikes are the ticket. With a super-relaxed riding position, padded seats, and limited or no gearing, these bikes are made for enjoying the scenery and having fun with the family.

    The Right Price
    A bike's price boils down to three essentials: frame materials, bike weight, and component quality and durability.

    • Entry-level--You'll find a wide range of comfort and cruiser bikes in this category, as well as some lower-end mountain bikes and road bikes. Most will have steel frames and components that are designed to last for several years with frequent use.
    • Mid-range--Bikes in this range may feature a lighter aluminum frame with mid-range components that keep performing after miles of use. If you're looking for a quality bike that is relatively lightweight and will stand up to abuse, this is the "sweet spot." Most serious commuter and touring bikes fall into this category, as do mid-range mountain bikes with a decent front suspension.
    • High-end--Racers and serious enthusiasts who expect lightweight, high-performance components will want to stick to this category. For road bikes, exotic frame materials (carbon fiber, titanium) and ultralightweight components can add thousands to the price tag. Mountain bikes in this class often feature advanced front and rear suspension technology, as well as components designed to handle lots of rugged trail action.

    The Right Size
    Fit is crucial for comfort, control, and proper power and endurance on a bike. Here are some basic bike fit tips:

    • Stand-over Height--To find out if a bike's overall height fits your body, measure your inseam. Next, determine how much clearance you'll need between your crotch and the top tube of the bike. For a mountain bike, you'll want three to five inches of clearance. A road bike should offer between one and two inches of clearance, while a commuter bike should have two to four inches. Compare the stand-over height for a given bike to your measurements (inseam + clearance) to determine the right bike height.
    • Top Tube Length--You can measure your torso to get a good estimate of proper top tube length. First, make a fist and extend your arm. Measure from the center of your fist to the end of your collarbone (the part that intersects your shoulder). Next, measure your torso by placing a book against your crotch with the spine facing up. Measure from the spine to the bottom of your throat (the spot between your collarbones). Finally, add the two measurements (arm length + torso length), divide the number in half, and subtract six inches. This is your approximate top tube length. Compare this number to a bike's posted top tube length. You can allow for about two inches longer or shorter, as most bikes can be adjusted via stem length/height and saddle fore/aft position to make fine adjustments to the fit.
    • Bikes for Women--Proportionally, women tend to have a shorter torso and longer legs than men. Bike makers design women's bikes that offer a shorter top tube and many comfort/cruiser bikes built for women may also provide more stand-over clearance.

    The Right Accessories
    When you make a bike purchase, don't forget these crucial add-ons:

    • Helmet (this is a must!)
    • Seat pack
    • Lock
    • Hydration pack, or water bottle and bottle cage
    • Spare tubes
    • Portable bike pump
    • Gloves

    The perfect space-saving city bike, the Schwinn Loop 7-Speed Folding bicycle folds away for easy storage when not in use. With a low, stand-over alloy frame, the bike is strong and durable. This is a great bike for running errands, commuting, and for leisure riding. Built for comfort and convenience the Schwinn Loop has a built-in rear carrier so that you can strap on a bag or basket and carry your belongings with you.?With 7 speeds and a 3-piece single-speed crankset, the bike shifts speeds reliably and with ease.

    Giro Me2 Infant Bike Helmet

    Giro Me2 Infant Bike Helmet Review



    Giro Me2 Infant Bike Helmet Feature

    • Adjustable bike helmet for infants and toddlers
    • Mini-Loc fit system with simple strap guides and buckle that won't pinch skin
    • 20 vents with built-in bug netting to keep your child's head cool
    • Multiple colorful designs; built-in visor
    • Fits heads measuring 18.75 to 20.5 inches (48 to 52 centimeters)
    Make sure your kids have a fun and safe ride with the Giro Me2 bike helmet for infants and toddlers. In addition to several colorfully fanciful designs--including yellow chicks, aviator pigs, pink bunnies, and red duck and goose--the helmet features 20 vents (protected with a built-in bug net) to help to keep your child's head cool. It also features Giro's Mini-Loc fit system with simple strap guides that enable your kid to put on the helmet without pinching skin. There's soft padding inside that feels great and a built-in visor for a bit of shade. This helmet is adjustable, enabling it to grow with your child. It's sized for infants and toddlers with heads measuring 18.75 to 20.5 inches in diameter.



    20 vents with built-in bug netting keep your child's head cool.


    Giro's Mini-Loc fit system features simple strap guides.

    Fitting a Helmet
    Here are some guidelines to getting the best fit for a bike helmet.

    • Eyes: The rim of the helmet should be up to 1 to 2 finger widths above the eyebrows
    • Ears: The straps should form a V under just beneath the ear lobe
    • Mouth: When the rider opens her mouth, the buckle should feel snug on the chin and the helmet should hug the head
    Before using the helmet, stand in front of the mirror and grab the helmet with both hands and twist it to the left and to the right. If the helmet fits right, the skin on the forehead will move as the helmet moves. If it does not, then the helmet is too loose and is unsafe for use and you need to start over.

    About Giro
    Working late nights in his garage, designer/bike racer Jim Gentes created the first lightweight adult cycling helmet in 1985. Friends at NASA helped tune the final helmet shape and vent placement, and the result was the Giro Prolight, a helmet that was better looking than traditional designs while offering a superior fit and still met the industry's toughest safety standards. Plus, it was half the weight of traditional helmets. Since then, Giro has advanced its helmets, many of which have set the standards for styling, function, and innovation for progressive, performance-oriented riders on dirt, pavement, and snow. Giro helmets are worn by millions of riders, cyclists, skiers, and snowboarders around the world. Young-bloods and old-timers; hard-cores, heshers, and hipsters; rookies, experts, and a few regular Joes too--in fact, pretty much anyone that appreciates superior fit and function, cutting edge styling, and the very best ideas you get in a helmet.

    The Me2 features thoughtful touches that parents adore and kids appreciate, like simple strap guides, an adjustable fit system and a buckle that won't pinch soft skin. It's the perfect start to a lifelong bond with helmets.

    About Recumbent Exercise Bikes
    Despite the competition from trendy new fitness inventions, exercise bikes continue to be popular options for home exercise. They offer the same aerobic benefits of riding a bicycle at any time, in any weather, without leaving the comfort and safety of home. Exercise bikes don't take up much space, require little or no balance or coordination, and can provide an effective workout for all levels of users, from beginners to serious competitors. While the same could be said for a number of other types of home fitness equipment, the exercise bike is one of the few that allows you to watch television or read a magazine while you work out.

    The term recumbent literally means "lying down." Exercising in a recumbent or reclining position allows the user to have full ergonomic back support, without causing strain on the arms, neck and shoulders, all of which can be common effects of using an upright bicycle. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program.
