It’s not just this ace looking Klunker that forms this limited edition series, the two brands have announced a collaboration to offer a full line of bicycles, cycling apparel, and accessories. Each piece is adorned with the most treasured symbols associated with the Grateful Dead: namely, the Dancing Bears and the 13 point Lightning Bolt.

The State Bicycle Co x Grateful Dead Lightning Bolt Klunker ($549.99) is a striking, retro-inspired, mash-up of: part beach cruiser, part mountain bike, and part BMX i.e. a real triple-threat. The perfect “DGAF” bike, for neighbourhood cruising, trips to the corner store, and walking the dog….OR… if you’re feeling audacious, mount up and rip a trail.

The SBC Klunker has the robust wheels, frame, and handlebars of a BMX, with ground-eating mountain bike tires, which means, should you so desire, you can mount up and rip a backwood trail if you are feeling adventurous. It is the ultimate all-purpose bicycle. It is is built to take a beating and look good in the process. It will never let you down and this Grateful Dead Klunker from State Bicycle Co will deliver more smiles per mile than any other bike.
