Americano overview
The Co-Motion Americano has established the standard for what a touring bike should be- an entirely new breed of bicycle that handles self-supported, transcontinental touring without even breaking a sweat. We've borrowed and developed ideas from our unsurpassed tandem designs to increase touring load capacity and provide a level of rugged reliability unmatched by any other bicycle.
Dishless, symmetrically laced tandem rear wheel with a 145mm axle.
Super-tough, large diameter Reynolds 725 double-butted tubes
Fittings for three bottles, front and rear racks, everything you need for an extended, self-contained tour.
New for 2010: Upgrade to the classic trim package with a Brooks B17 saddle, and leather grips/bar tape plus a nickel-plated Co-Motion headbadge.
