  1. The women's version of a 3-speed auto-shift beach cruiser caught a
    female relative's eye, chiefly because it's pink and on the back of
    the new Performance catalogue.

    Sadly, only the dull men's version appears online:

    Presumably the electronic gadgets fore, aft, and amidships relieve the
    rider from the fearsome task of choosing the gear behind door 1, door
    2, or door 3.

    "Durable and lightweight aluminum frame gives you a smooth ride."

    Aluminum! It's the new dilithium!

    "Light and easy rolling, 700c wheels."

    Warp 10!

    "Tough, impact resistant polycarbonate fenders."

    Shields up!

    "Outfitted with a lightweight aluminum frame, multi-speed gearing, and
    easy rolling high pressure tires, the Ultraliner is ready to take you
    farther and with less effort than traditional cruisers."

    To boldly go where no beach cruisers have gone before!

    Cheers,

    Carl Fogel

    It's weird, and I don't know what the weight is, but that seems like a
    pretty credible bicycle, at least for flatland riding. The 700C wheels
    are an unusual choice in that category.

    3-speed auto-shifting does appear to be nonsense, but that's my way of
    saying I wouldn't buy an auto-shifted 3-speed, not that nobody should
    buy one.
