If you're looking for an [affordable commuter bike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/etb-200) that is high-quality, aesthetically pleasing and will also cost you next to nothing to up-keep then the Priority Bike is perfect for you. These bikes require little year round maintenance and it won't break the bank.

Each Priority Bike begins with a durable aluminum frame that is rust-proof and won't suffer from tarnish. These bikes come with three gears for a smooth and minimal transition while you're on the road. The built-in belt-driven system ensures that riders will have to spend nothing on maintenance. Luxurious leather seats, [puncture-proof tires](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintage-tires) and a bottle cage complete this [affordable bike design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heybike-hauler). The purchase of a Priority Bike also guarantees you a tire pump which is handy to have with you while on-the-go.
