For the second year in a row, our Novara Transfer bike has won Bicycling Magazine's Editor Choice Award for best commuter bike! Ride on.

Transfer is all about getting from Point A to Point B, comfortably, confidently, quickly, with everything you need to get the job done right
Transfer is fully outfitted with rack, fenders, lights and kickstand, for a ride that's hassle-free no matter the weather, time of day or road surface
Aluminum frame is lightweight and stiff for easy lifting and quick acceleration, yet plenty strong to withstand heavy loads and rough roads
Shimano internal rear hub is remarkably maintenance-free compared to conventional cassette systems and provides seven smooth-shifting gears
Using the Nexus shifter is intuitively simple, letting you adjust the ride to meet the challenges of ascents, descents and sprints through traffic
New for 2007, the bright LP50 headlight is powered by a generator in the front hub; battery-powered Cateye tail light provides rear visibility
Tektro linear-pull brakes provide comfortable braking and reliable stopping power
Transfer's rack is ready for cargo, quickly accepting panniers or trunk bag (sold separately)—great for carrying groceries or work attire
Puncture-resistant Vittoria Randonneur tires feature reflective sidewalls, sure grip and a fast, smooth ride
Comfort comes easy with the plush Velo Comfort saddle and grips
Kalloy Cozy Comfort handlebar and adjustable stem create an upright ride that's easy on the neck and back, and maximizes your view in all directions
Just get on and ride, no fancy shoes required—alloy platform pedals accommodate a variety of shoes
Never appear unannounced; the handlebar-mounted bell sounds your presence loud and clear
Transfer even includes a kickstand for your parking and storing convenience

After its initial break-in period you might notice your bicycle performing less responsively than the day you brought it home. Not to worry, this is typical of all new bicycles and simply reflects that cables have stretched or their housings have seated themselves into final position. To keep running at peak performance, all REI bicycles come with a FREE warranty tune-up, which should be accomplished between the first 100-200 miles of riding or after the first two months if you're accumulating miles less quickly. Contact your nearest REI bike shop for details and an appointment for this important service.
