Fairdale Lookfar Step-Through City Bike - microSHIFT - 2023
Details
A companion to our popular Lookfar, the Step-Thru provides more clearance for getting on and off the bike, especially when loaded with extra cargo, and it provides a very comfortable ride for cruising and commuting. One simple trigger shifter changes the gears up-or-down through all 8-speeds, and the bike’s 40mm wide Maxxis tires feel fast on smooth ground while still confidently handling rougher terrain. The Lookfar comes equipped with rack and fender mounts for lots of useful set-up options. We even chose to use normal Schrader valve tubes so you won’t need to use a special bike pump. The Lookfar shares the same proven geometry as our ever-popular Weekender model. Gloss Surf Blue is available in Small/Medium.
