Green’s Swansea

The “Swansea” model from the “Green’s” brand, released in 2021, is a versatile bicycle available for 499 EUR. The frame is made of lightweight aluminium, resulting in a total weight of 17 kg. This makes the bike robust enough for everyday use without compromising on manoeuvrability. The braking system comprises V-brakes at both the front and rear, supplemented by a coaster brake, which offers additional safety.

The bike is fitted with a Shimano Nexus 7-speed gear system, operated via a Nexus twist grip. This gear system offers a reliable and simple way to change gears, which is particularly advantageous in urban environments. The rigid fork ensures direct power transfer and a precise riding feel.

In terms of lighting, the Swansea is fitted with an AXA Ecoline LED front light and an AXA stand-activated rear light, both of which are powered by a hub dynamo. This combination ensures reliable lighting when cycling at night, without the need for batteries. The 38-tooth chainring and fixed-length stem contribute to the bike’s stability and durability.

The aluminium hollow-section rims and Kenda Reflex tyres (40-622) offer a good balance between durability and comfort. Stainless steel spokes increase resistance to corrosion and contribute to the bike’s longevity. The Selle Royal RIO saddle offers comfort on longer rides, whilst the fixed seatpost ensures a stable riding position.

Additional features such as painted steel mudguards, a practical side stand and an aluminium luggage rack with a flap make the Green’s Swansea an ideal companion for everyday use. These features enable the rider to transport luggage safely and park the bike conveniently. In summary, the Swansea offers a balanced combination of functionality and comfort, making it suitable for a variety of riding conditions.
