Corsa 24
The Corsa 24 is a great option for those people in the 5’5” to 5’10” range who want the performance and ride of dual big wheels, but in which the starting and stopping aspects of the dual 650c bikes tends to be a little too much to handle. Many people in this height range, find that starting and stopping on a dual 650c bike, leaves them on the balls of their feet or on their tip toes, which can cause a loss of confidence in a lot of “stop and go” situations such as city riding. With the Corsa 24 you retain the same frame and equal components of the standard Corsa (the two bikes look identical), however you are now a full 1.75” closer to the ground with the dual 24” wheels versus the dual 650c wheels. For a person who is on their tiptoes, this will put you almost flat footed and give you a lot more riding confidence.
A note about our archived bikes - we have provided all of the sizing information and specs we have below. We provide general sizing information here, but in many cases it won't be applicable to older bikes. We also do not have information about year of manufacture based on serial number. And before you call to ask us, we do not keep a secret database in the office that we aren't sharing :).
