The Tempo Transit 8 is a lightweight road style commuter and fitness bike that makes your rides and commutes faster. With its lightweight 7005 Alloy frame and fork, road bike style handlebars, dual disc brakes, and high efficiency internal 8-speed gearing, you can take on longer commutes - in a wide range of conditions - without fatigue or discomfort. The Tempo Transit 8 uses the Shimano Alfine 8-speed hub - offering a high efficiency design that delivers a surprisingly wide gear range in a compact design. The gearing is controlled by the Versa integrated shift-brake levers for fast, smooth and precise shifting control at any time - while pedaling, coasting or even at a complete stop. Plus, with this fully enclosed so there are no external moving parts. This means your gearing last longer - without adjustments, repairs or maintenance. The Tempo Transit 8 was designed for use on paved terrain. With its drop style handlebars and aluminum front fork, it delivers a more efficient riding position, to help you make quick work of hills and long commutes. The Tempo Transit 8 also uses front and rear disc brakes to give you extra stopping power and confidence - especially if the going gets messy. With the disc brake calipers and rotors raised above the road, they minimize contamination from road debris to make your braking more consitent in wet, muddy or snowy conditions. The Tempo Transit 8 also features the Sussex shaft drive system. The Sussex shaft drive has been in production for 20 years, and this 3rd generation shaft drive is the most efficient and lightest weight shaft drive system on the market. With its fully enclosed design, the shaft drive smoothly and efficiently transfers power from the pedals to the rear wheel - without adjustments or exposure to mud, dirt and other debris that would otherwise contaminate external chains and derailleurs. In turn, the shaft drive stays cleaner to keep grease and mess off your hands and clothes. The Tempo Transit 8 uses a host of high quality components - all designed to keep the bike simple to operate and simple to maintain. This includes double wall alloy rims to keep the wheels stiff and straight so they don't need to be adjustment as often; the stainless steel spokes to add strength and durability; and the alloy components to resist rust and corrosion. But the Tempo Transit also offers convenience features as well - such as an angle adjustable stem for setting just the right riding position; and a fully adjustable seat with quick release lever for easy adjustment of the seat height, angle, and horizontal position.
