THE CITY ALL-ROUNDER
Practical, functional and yet reduced in appearance - Gustav is an all-rounder in urban traffic and offers comfort as well as a functional equipment package for everyday commuting. In this limited edition, Gustav appears with polished silver components, leather applications and LightSKIN U2 headlights. Each bike is individually numbered by engraving.
Award-winning Design
Awarded by renowned design experts and decision-makers from the bicycle industry, Gustav stands for the well thought-out concept of the functional, aesthetically sophisticated everyday bicycle. In the course of the relaxed frame geometry and seating position as well as comfortable tyres, short distances in the city can be managed just as comfortably as extended tours. Another highlight is the frame-mounted front rack with VarioStrap system, which keeps the load securely in place.
Comfortable. Relaxed. Low maintenance.
Enough clearance for large-volume tyres, sufficient loading height for the front carrier and a relaxed riding position were the goals when developing the geometry for Gustav. The low bottom bracket and long head tube achieved just that. Even cobblestone paths become a new favourite shortcut with this riding comfort.
Comfortable on any terrain.
Whether extended tours with climbs or speedy tailwind passages, the Shimano Nexus 8-speed transmission offers enough leeway with a spread of 307%. Shift and brake levers are optimally integrated in the tidy cockpit and easy to reach. The high-quality rubber grips ensure optimum grip even on uneven terrain.
See and be seen.
The Busch und Müller headlight ensures good visibility at night, while the Curana rear light is inconspicuously integrated into the rear aluminium mudguard. Thanks to the hub dynamo, you don't need to worry about the power supply - a standlight function is also on board.
