Steel Frame
The famous World Randonneur chromoly steel frame keeps style, class and strength in mind. Our Chromoly touring bike steel frames are built to last through heavy conditions.
Bike Mirror
All Vivente touring bikes come equipped with a bike mirror. We believe safety is a major concern and our Busch & Muller bike mirrors provide excellent visibility with their extra wide field of view.
Kick Stand
At only 365g this sturdy touring bike kickstand will let you prop your bike up in most places. This kickstand is pre-installed and designed to allow your bike to stand even when it's fully loaded with luggage and gear.
