Addie, a Ben's customer, came in to Ben's looking for a bike to do long rides with her husband. She wanted to get on the Glacial-Drumlin trail, do the Door County Century, and do long, leisurely rides."My husband bought me a hybrid five years ago," she said. "But it was too heavy and that grandma seat just wasn't comfortable."
We suggested she try out the Milwaukee Bicycle Company cyclocross bike. A lot of our customers have been customizing the bike and using it for touring.
"It reminds me of the comfort of riding a bike as a kid," she said while getting an initial fit from professional fit guru Brett Meinke.
Addie said she appreciated being able to customize the bike as well as getting a fit from Brett. She said she was glad as well to buy a product made in Wisconsin.
Even though she already has a carbon-fiber road bike, she said the weight difference was minimal.
Addie is scheduled to return for a final fit with Brett where he will trim the steer tube, adjust the saddle position, and change out the stem.
