Curve D3
Perfect for
  • Commutes combining riding with bus/train rides.
  • Stashing under your desk at work so you can ride to that new Thai café for lunch.

The Curve has quietly become one of our most popular models, with customers raving about the cute styling and surprisingly good ride. The Curve is the perfect bike for squeezing onto crowded trains and buses on a commute, or as secondary transport stashed in a car. The Curve is available in three colors that are sure to turn some heads: fire red, blush pink, and cloud white.
