and incorporate all the details that might be expected: fittings for mudguards and racks, dynamo light options, Reflex tires with puncture protection, and ergonomic grips. Some models even get the award-winning BioLogic PostPump 2.0 seatpost, a seatpost with an integrated high-capacity floor pump. Node bikes are perfect for bridging the first and last mile between the park-and-ride, subway, or bus line.
