At a jaw dropping prize of 180$ (approx. 180€ or 160£) this Florida based single speed beast is a perfect match for anyone looking for a good quality at a reasonable price. The urban geometry frame and 4 different color mixes are guarantees of many compliments when cruising streets on this beauty. The rear hub is a flip-flop which allows you to quickly change from single speed to fixed gear by simply flipping the rear wheel. A great addition from the manufacturer are wider (28c) tires for increased contact and control in urban settings.
Wide tires can provide more comfort than narrow tires, all other things being equal.
With a larger chamber of air between you and the road, a wider tire allows you to drop the pressure without running the risk of a pinch flat (where the inner tube gets punctured as a result of being sandwiched between the wheel rim and the ground). The lower pressure increases the amount of cushioning you get from the road, improving your comfort. Simple as that.
