A: Simplest but most expensive (MUCH more expensive) solution is the Schlumpf. Changing gear while moving would be almost impossible though.

The Nexus is a cheaper option (especially if you have a second wheel built up) but, of course, it's

Fun to Ride in the Face of Car Culture
Great bike. Had an old 10 speed schwinn in law s chool and this feels just as sturdy and way lighter. Hills are tough now, but I'm out of shape, slightly downhill or straights are great. I just wish there were more bikes on our roads...the color's good too, normally I go for black, but I like being more visible since no one looks for bikes in L.A. even in the bike lanes.
Awesome Commuter
I just recently purchased this bike and love it already. I was looking for a cheaper but reliable bike to replace my old and falling apart car and this bike was exactly what I was looking for. It's fast, comfortable and fairly easy to assemble. After riding if for a short time I am already thinking about upgrading some of the parts (brakes, tires, and rims.) but only to make an already awesome bike better.
Great for the money
I was looking for a bike that was light, solid, and a good price. I found it in this
bike. Went with the free shipping and got the bike in 4 days!! Saved [...] bucks there.
The bike was easy to put together and ready for the road. After riding a mountin bike for years it was a nice switch light and fast. Only gripe one tube had a small
hole (easy patch). Then the other tube goes flat. My advice order some new rim strips you will need them and will save the frustration. I am 5' 11" bike fits me well a little on the tall side perfect for some one 6' or over.

Definitely a good buy.
I had to call Schwinn to get the actual one-size-fits-all size. It's 21". The bike is extremely lightweight and fast. The red paint and white rims look sharp.

Osobike Review
I have had the Osobike for over a year now and rode it for probably around 1000 miles. The bike rides great and looks great. I like the coaster brake feature because I can steer with my hands and brake with my feet. My friend, who is a more avid biker, also has an Osobike which he takes out on frequent 30 to 40 mi bike rides for exercise. We estimate he has rode the Oso over 4000 miles and the bike still looks great and is going strong. I highly recommend this great bike. You just can't find a bike that is light, has a coaster brake, and looks mondern in a bike shop. At least I haven't seen any.

At heart I'm a musician, but I hold a strong passion for all things bicycle related. Moving to China has been one of the greatest adventures of my life, and I'm extremely excited for the future of cycling here in Asia. Poutine, loud music, and riding fast !
