Vintage-Inspired Ninja Bicycles

The James Perse City Cruiser is a Single-Speed Made for Commuting

Anyone riding the James Perse City Cruiser will feel like a cycling ninja. The sleek all-black frame easily blends into the night for stealth missions in urban settings. Not to mention that it might be a faster way to get to one's destination other than running along rooftops. Combining vintage track style with modern urban functionality, such a warrior wouldn't feel stunted by its retro aspect either.

Following the James Perse Beach Cruiser, which made waves back in 2009, the James Perse City Cruiser is custom built using Chromoly steel forks and frames. It boasts a clear powder-coated over hand-sanded raw steel or finished in a matte khaki grey. It is a limited edition design.
