Takara Kabuto Single Speed Road Bike, 58cm/large, Green/Blue 58
The kabuto is all about keeping things simple and getting it done without breaking the bank. At the heart of the kabuto you-feet ll find a strong hand crafted steel frame with horizontal dropouts that can handle the abuse of the big city. City riders told us that they didn-feett need derailleur-feet’s so we listened and outfitted the kabuto with a flip Flop bug so you can run it as a fixed gear or in standard freewheel single speed Mode without having to worry about adjustments to temperamental components. The 32 hole alloy wheels roll on loud Kenda 700 x 32 tires that are capable of withstanding less than perfect roads. Front and rear alloy side pull brakes round out this spectacular model.

Takara Kabuto..many possibilities The bike itself is or appears to be pretty solid. It should be noted that mine came with a 18t freewheel NOT a 16, so if you thought you needed an 18…..Majority ….well ALL the components that came with it are typical of a bike costing sub 200; however, I planned to use this bike as an experiment. Bike as is, does indeed weigh every bit of 30lbs. And so, I started to get to work.Replaced the following:Dumped the steel crank and chainring. Went with a…
