I converted from my mountain bike to this bike since I'm now 55 and hate stooping over. I read reviews of a similar cruising bike and how they picked this one due to the seat being more comfortable and I agree. The seat is very wide, soft and has springs. The seat and handlebars are adjustable so I can sit upright. It has a flat black powder coat paint that looks classic with the whitewall tires. It just feels comfortable riding with the handlebars up higher. It's perfect for 30 min. bike ride around the neighborhoods. I got the basic since we live in the flat plains and have no significant hills. I would get the GT7 adjustable gear if you have hills since there is some effort to begin pedaling with the basic, like is in a medium gear otherwise. But it is comfortable to pedal down the street, not spinning your legs too fast like in a low gear.
