Forget hybrids and electric cars—the bicycle is still the most energy-efficient means of getting around. Which makes Aurora —arguably the last of the production-built, loaded touring bikes—unbeatably efficient at hauling you and your stuff, and the ultimate ride for big-distance commuters and cyclo-tourists.

We’ve been at the touring game for nearly 30 years, so we know how to do it right. We use Reynolds steel tubing, for its uncanny ride quality and ability to save you from bone-jarring hits when you’re fully loaded. Our touring geometry combines a lanky wheelbase with stability-enhancing weight distribution, avoiding awkward wheel-
flop and dodgy handling when you’re loaded up and taking full advantage of those front- and rear-rack braze- ons. And wide-range gearing helps move you along, uphill or down, with powerful cantilevers or disc brakes to keep descending speeds in check.

Available colors: Blue Smoke/stainless and Sangria/Silver plate - please note color choice in order notes at checkout.
