Breezer’s Uptown Infinity, their top of the line commuter bike, is now shipping. Designed to offer every convenience and utility one may need for getting to and from work or errands, the big premium on the Infinity version is the use of Nuvinci’s 360 internal planetary geared hub that offers an infinite range of gearing between the hardest and easiest settings. Simply twist the dial (which is pretty effortless) and the effort changes instantaneously and without fuss. If you’ve never ridden one, it’s pretty smooth, and since it’s all enclosed in the hub, should be virtually maintenance free.
Highlights include full fenders, rear rack, full chaincase guard and integrated Busch & Muller dynamo powered head and tail lights, which are considered to be the best and brightest of the category. Most of the cockpit is Breezer branded alloy bits, including a suspension seatpost. Cranks and front dynamo hub are Shimano.
Lastly, it includes an AXA solid ring lock built into the seatstays to make quick coffee shop pit stops easier. Engaging the lock immobilizes the rear wheel. Price is $1,269, and it’s available in a low-step frame version also, shown after the break…
