Green’s Essex

The 2021 ‘Essex’ model from the ‘Green’s’ brand is a reliable and functional bicycle which, at a price of 399 EUR, represents an attractive option for everyday use. The bike’s frame is made of aluminium, which contributes to a total weight of 17 kg and ensures a robust yet easy-to-handle design.

The Essex is fitted with a Shimano V-brake system at the front and a V-brake and coaster brake at the rear, ensuring reliable braking performance. Gear changes are controlled via a three-speed Nexus hub gear system, operated by a Nexus twist grip, enabling simple and comfortable gear changes. The bike’s rigid fork contributes to its stability and is ideally suited for use in urban environments.

In terms of lighting, the Essex is fitted with an AXA LED sensor front light and a rear light, both of which are powered by a practical hub dynamo. This ensures constant and reliable lighting without the need for batteries. The 38-tooth chainring and the fixed-position stem complete the specification to ensure a comfortable riding experience.

The aluminium hollow-section rims and the Kenda Reflex tyres in size 47-622 offer a good combination of stability and comfort, whilst the bright-zinc-plated spokes contribute to the bike’s durability. The fixed saddle and the steel rear luggage rack offer additional functionality, whilst the painted steel mudguards ensure an attractive look. A side stand rounds off the features and provides convenient parking.

Overall, the Green’s Essex is a well-designed bike that is ideal for everyday use in the city and impresses with its solid build quality and attractive value for money.
