Used Crew Bike Defender Single-Speed Bike – Black 700c Mag Wheels

Crew Bike Co. Defender Single Speed – Refined Vintage Ride

Looking for a timeless commuter or gravel cruiser? This pre-owned Crew Bike Co. Defender combines classic steel-frame durability with modern single-speed simplicity—perfect for urban explorers or casual riders seeking low-maintenance reliability.

Key Features:
– Frame & Geometry: Steel construction (c-t 18.5″, effective top tube 22″) designed for riders 5’6″–6’0″, offering a balanced fit for smooth city streets or light trails.
– Components: Alloy suspension seatpost paired with a comfortable Giant Romero saddle (140mm width), flatbar handlebars (680mm), and a 33T steel crankset for easy pedaling efficiency.
– Wheels & Tires: Navigate alloy rims (5 spokes) paired with WTB Resolute 700x42c tires—wide enough for grip but lightweight enough for nimble handling.

Condition & Value:
This bike has been ridden moderately (condition rating: 7/10). The steel frame shows minimal wear, brakes are serviceable (pads rated 5/10), and tires/chain/crankset are in solid shape (7/10). The rear mag wheel has slight truing imperfections typical of vintage rims—perfectly rideable but adds character to its charm.

Why It Stands Out:
| Feature | This Bike | Competitor A (Aluminum Frame) | Competitor B (New Entry-Level) |
|————————|————————————|——————————|——————————|
| Frame Material | Durable Steel | Lightweight Aluminum | Steel |
| Maintenance | Integrated headset (low upkeep) | Frequent bearing replacements | Frequent chain wear |
| Weight | 31 lbs—versatile for mixed terrain | 28 lbs (fragile on rough roads)| 35 lbs (heavier) |
| Warranty | 60-day local mechanical warranty | No warranty | 30-day parts only |

Perfect For:
– Cyclists prioritizing longevity over fleeting trends
– Riders who value manual gear simplicity over complex drivetrains
– Budget-conscious shoppers seeking pre-owned reliability

Fit Tip: While sized Large (standover 31.5″), double-check geometry if you’re at either end of the height spectrum—steel frames adapt well to minor adjustments!

Note: Local purchases include our 60-day mechanical warranty—peace of mind for stress-free riding.
