The deceptively simple Standert Bürgermeister*in city bike slipped in under our radar with old-school steel trekking bike looks, but just the right mix of modern tech sprinkled in for do-it-all versatility. They call it a bike to ““, which basically means it’s a no-nonsense townie bike with all the tire clearance, integrated lighting, and carrying capacity to head off on an adventure the moment you pedal out of the office at the end of the day on Friday.
But then it mixes in modern details, too – modular sliding dropouts , post-mount disc brakes, a split seatstay for belt-drive compatibility, modular semi-internal cable routing inside the downtube, 3-bolt anything cage mounts on each fork leg, and even the option for a 1-piece bar+stem combo – in steel of course.
You can build the Bürgermeister*ins up 1x or 2x, and with mechanical or electronic drivetrains, or single speed or even with an internally geared hub.The versatile Bürgermeister*in commuter comes in three colors Desert Sunrise white, Glacier Glow green, and Purple Reign.You can get it as a frameset for 950€ including the 1″ headset & chromoly stem, or in special 1050€ limited edition framesets that add in a color-matched 1-piece chromoly steel handlebar+stem combo.
