Made predominantly for Street riding, the Optimium from Stay Strong features everything you need to hit the streets with confidence. Firstly the optimism is spec’d out with exclusively sealed bearings meaning that everything is solid, lightweight and requires minimal maintenance. This model comes with a Freecoaster hub also which opens up a whole world of fakie tricks (if that’s not what you’re looking for, check out the regular optimum model). Up front the street theme continues with 4-piece bars and a sealed female axle front hub. Sealed 3-piece cranks, a fat padded combo seat and post, 2 durable Chromoly Pegs and fat 2.4” gum tires complete the parts packs.
The bike has a 20.75” top tube so would be a good fit for any rider between 5ft and 6ft and has a short rear end and steep head tube making it super-responsive (yes that means hop threes will be easier!). Also worthy of a mention on this bike are the removable brakes/mounts and Cr-mo front end which isn’t normally standard features you find on a bike at this price point. The bottom line is, if you’re looking for a solid and dependable street bike with a freecoaster hub you will be hard pressed to find something better at this price point.
