This stylish black number offers the spare aesthetics of a fixie, with the added benefit of a three-speed coaster brake hub for tackling hills. It's light, too, which helps make the ride both smooth and speedy. Built by Tim Parr—who founded Swobo in 1991 as a bike-centric clothing company, only to sell and then buy back the firm in the early 2000s—the Otis can handle hard riding if necessary, thanks in part to its strong front mechanical-disc brake. And if you need a break of a different kind, there's a bottle opener on the saddle. Enjoy responsibly.
