8 of the best men’s city bikes for urban adventuring

If, like us here at The Coolector, you love jumping on two wheels in search of adventure and currently find yourself in the market for a new ride, there is certainly no shortage of awesome city bikes to choose from. To make things a bit easier, why not check out our pick of 8 of the best men’s city bikes for urban adventures below:


State Bicycle Co City Bike

There’s nothing more timeless than a Black & Tan bike with chrome accents. Mustache-bars, coaster brake, new 35c tires, and an affixed bottle opener keep things looking retro-tastic on this ultra-light cruiser from State Bicycle Co.


Brooklyn Bicycle Co Bedford 8 Speed

Brooklyn Bicycle Co’s essential commuter bike is perfect for getting around town. Simple and utilitarian, the Bedford 8 beckons riders to hop on and go. The combination of a classic diamond frame accented by the vegan leather saddle and grips makes for our most stylish city bike.


Public V7 Bike

Crafted around a classic diamond frame and hand-made from robust lightweight steel, the PUBLIC V7 city bike sports a versatile Shimano MegaRange 1×7 drivetrain with a wide range of gears designed to tackle just about any hill from San Francisco to Seattle. Puncture-resistant commuter bike tires offer a signature smooth ride over even rough city streets.


Temple Cycles Metro Single Speed

The Metro Singlespeed is a minimalist machine, designed to let you weave your way through city streets with ease. Temple Cycles have made a few modern updates to make for a compact, lightweight, and super-practical steed that needs minimal maintenance. This is the ideal bike for the city.



Shinola Runwell Bike

Taking inspiration from the French style of Porteur bicycles, first used by newspaper couriers in Paris, The Runwell provides a classic blend of urban style and practicality. Impeccably designed to yield the best characteristics of a lugged steel frame and fork, Shinola has engineered The Runwell to handle predictably and smoothly for city riding, commuting and errand running.


Pure Cycles City Classic Bike

The Pure City Classic is one smooth glass of class that we’re loving at Coolector HQ.  Designed to effortlessly take you from Point A to Point B, it’s ready to quench your thirst for riding, and give you a nice little buzzy feeling at the same time.


Martone Real V3 Diamond Bike

The 3-gear hub is part of the all-new V3 bikes by Martone Cycling Co. It gives you all the flexibility in the world throughout your urban adventures. Best of all: these commuter bikes require virtually no maintenance. Martone bikes are light and strong, with a sturdy double-walled steel frame perfect for daily urban journey


TokyoBike Classic Sport 26 Bike

The Classic Sport is a great example of the Japanese thinking that guides Tokyobike. The 26” wheel size was originally meant to help smaller riders. But it’s ultimately helpful to everyone, with faster acceleration, a profile that’s easier to get on and off public transport, and a footprint that can be stored away inside any apartment. Win, win.
