Speedvagen Urban Racer

I like the look of this Urban Racer

Looks nice, but would want to for that price.

And not single speed, nitpicking.

How does that coaster job work? Second gear kicks in at a certain cadence? I wouldn't want a bike that changed gears unexpectedly while merging in traffic....!

Let’s get serious now. The price for a complete build is USD$4,895, a pretty penny for a commuter, but this is a lifer.

Hooly Dooly... Yeah, a lifer maybe for people with more money than sense. Til they get distracted by the next big, overpriced thing.

I'm not 100% certain but usually it's a short back pedal to switch gears.

I've heard of those too, but the way it's worded in the article sounds like it works by cadence - though I dunno maybe it's written badly or I read it wrong.
