NEW GLOSSY BLACK COLOR! Just arrived and shipping all sizes now.
We took the look, style and simplicity of our track bike, Sanchez, and
created the Del Norte. The main difference is that we designed the
frame and fork dimensions for more versatile riding. Unlike the
Sanchez, which is designed around narrow track bike dimensions and
track hubs, Del Norte can accommodate a wider range of tires and
traditional full fenders with stays. Wider tires means wider range of
riding options. Skinny tires means a skinny range of riding options.
Flat bars are an option, if you prefer. E-mail kickstand@swobo.com if
you prefer flat bars on your Del Norte.
Custom Swobo spec includes powder-coated red hubs, rims and chain;
chromed steel drop bars and Swobo saddle with bottle opener.
Dual-function pedals can be ridden with street shoes, or bike shoes
with SPD cleats.
The rear wheel is set up with a single-speed freewheel, or the hub can
be flipped and ridden as a fixed gear. Which in laymen's terms means
that you can have that track bike look and...well look...with the
option of having the rear wheel spin freely. Tight pants and empty
messenger bag pulled high and tight onto your upper back works with
either hub configuration. Extra-long reach front and rear brakes
accommodate fenders. Rear rack and fenders mount to our custom forged
dropouts with threaded eyelets.
We make Del Norte in 5 sizes, to fit most people. When our optional
Planet Bike fenders are ordered along with the bike you save $9.99.
Go to our Hard
Parts section of our site to order them, and the fender
savings will be calculated in your shopping cart.
Swobo reserves the right to make small spec changes in the course of production.
