The Ultimate Day Date Bike

Drew Kries


We’ve got an exciting announcement for riders who live for the moment. Meet the Vega, our new comfort hybrid. The most important thing to know about the Vega is that if you want to ride, you must be “down for anything.” It’s not about where you’re going on the Vega – it’s about the stops along the way.

Vega’s design encourages the easy starts and stops necessary for casual, social riding. It’s the kind of riding that means you can put your foot down and embrace life’s spontaneous moments.

It’s all thanks to foot down geometry, our unique way of designing the bike to let you effortlessly stop and go. This unique geometry allows you to put your feet on the ground without getting off the seat. It’s a nice feature for keeping it comfy when you’re taking a break. But there’s one more piece. This unique geometry also gives you proper leg extension when it comes time to pedal again, so you can still relax when you’re on the go.

Plus, Vega’s throwback style is definitely a vibe.

Why a Day Date?

So, what does this mean for Vega’s title as “ultimate day date bike”? Well, the best dates are sequences. They’re not just dinner. They’re dinner and a movie. Even better: dinner, and a movie, and an ice cream run. On the best dates, you stop and go, and that moment can be a source of fun and energy all on its own.

But you don’t have to stick to the classics. For a day date, you can get more creative.

Start with coffee, then find a taco truck, then head to the used bookstore. Or start with tacos, then go for bubble tea, and then the arcade. It’s totally up to you, but we definitely recommend tacos.

Riding bikes is already a great idea for a date. It’s not overdone, but not unheard of. Really, it’s the perfect mix of active and relaxed, and there’s the added benefit of getting from one place to another. Good vibes only get better with some sun on your face and some endorphins from pedaling. And you can have a lively conversation while you cruise down the bike path between stops.

And of course, that’s where Vega’s foot down geometry comes in. Stopping at a crosswalk doesn’t mean the conversation has to stop, and it’s easy to pause to admire the scenery or take a selfie anytime you feel like it. Having a conversation while taking in the scenery, stopping mid-ride for ice cream, or meeting new people on the bike path, Vega is down for anything.

Don’t forget, a day date is more than just a bunch of activities. It’s really about who you ride with, and a “date” can be whatever you want it to be. It can be you and someone special, you and your bestie, or even the whole squad. And you don’t have to go overboard planning. Vega is all about spontaneity, and most of life’s best moments are unplanned anyway.
