Update: Alta Bikes Hit the States

Posted on June 2, 2008 Under Gadgetry

For some time now Alta Bikes have had a handle on the business of supplying simple, single-speed bikes for urban inhabitants. Despite the practicality of their pedal-able product, one thing has gotten in the way of the Norwegian bicycle manufacturer‘s domination of the global market … location, location, location. Previously unavailable in the U.S., the bicycle makers have opened up a trade route to the Western Hemisphere, so that city cycling enthusiasts across the country can get their hands on one of these handsome modes of transport. The bikes are available in a wide array of colors. Fellow Americans, we encourage you to choose the shade that suits you and then promptly take to the streets.
