The Step Through Frame Stereotype

Before I got this bike, I was a little self conscious of what people might think about a guy riding a step though frame. I really shouldn't care, but the stereotype associated with it was always on the back of my mind.

The Kona AfricaBike and the Africa Bike Program helped me get over it. The good cause this bike supports and represents, made the whole "girl bike" thing a non-issue for me.


After riding it for almost a month, I'm liking the step though frame. Even if they made a diamond frame version, I'll still take the step though instead. It's simply a more versatile design.

P.S. Here is an interesting link about this topic.
