The Kickstand
Comfort Cruiser Bicycles
If you’re looking for a bike for easygoing rides that emphasize fun over speed, you should consider a bicycle cruiser. Cruiser bikes, also known as beach cruisers, are the bike of choice for flat roads, slow rides and shorter distances. That makes them a great choice for casual, noncompetitive rides without challenging hills, like the Paseo del Bosque trail. At The Kickstand, we provide comfort cruisers for all types of riders: from families desiring more outdoor adventure to individuals seeking a laid-back cruise by the Rio Grande.
The New and Improved Cruiser
In the 1970s and 1980s, cruisers had a reputation as “clunkers,” because they were typically older—leftovers from the cruiser’s heyday in the middle of the 20th century—and constructed with heavy frames. The cruiser has regained its popularity in recent years, and newly manufactured bicycle cruisers are made of much lighter aluminum. They also have one speed, fat “balloon” tires, a comfortable wide seat, and sometimes fenders or chain covers. Many cruisers come with luggage racks, wicker bicycle baskets or other storage accessories.
At The Kickstand, we take the time to assess whether the comfort cruiser bicycle you’re considering is right for your bicycling needs, size and budget. Everyone at The Kickstand is an experienced bicyclist and a New Mexico native, so we can draw on our years of experience riding in New Mexico to advise you on the best bike for your riding goals.
Cruiser Bicycle Accessories
For families looking to ride together, we offer some children’s clothing and accessories, child’s bicycle seats, bike trailers and more. In addition to the traditional rear-mounted child’s bicycle seat, we carry trailer seats for kids. Riders of all ages who want to bring snacks, sunscreen, cell phones, and other essentials, might be interested in rear racks, plastic, metal and wicker bicycle baskets, panniers and other storage accessories. Other popular accessories for cruisers include headlights and taillights, custom bike seats, fenders and chain covers, mirrors, decorations and bike locks. If you need assistance installing something you bought at The Kickstand, our expert mechanic DJ Casarez, can help.
