The Express is a bike that is not caught up in the bicycle industry's chaotic technological race. The Express follows Fairdale's mantra, "Keepin' it simple keeps it fun."
And, it doesn't get much more simple than MTB riser style handlebars on a tough yet comfortable single-speed steel frame. Wide reliable tires and FSA cranks round out the durable build that you'll enjoy riding long after the next cycling fad has come and gone.
