The rims are made of aluminium and are fitted with Continental CONTACT Cruiser tyres, which, with their 27.5'' x 2.4'' dimensions, ensure good grip. The saddle is a Selle Royal model, offering comfort for longer rides. The seat post is also made of aluminium.
Other features include powder-coated aluminium mudguards, a sturdy Ursus kickstand and an integrated ABUS lock for added security. The AtranVelo luggage rack can carry a load of up to 27 kg, which is handy for transporting shopping or luggage.
