About this product
This Budnitz No. 1 Titanium City Bike is a medium-sized gravel bike, designed with a titanium frame and a striking titanium color. It features 700C wheels equipped with clincher tires and a drop bar handlebar. Braking is handled by mechanical disc brakes, and the bike comes with no suspension. A key feature is its 1-speed belt drive system, providing a low-maintenance ride. Manufactured in the United States, this model emphasizes simplicity and durability for urban and light gravel use.
Our take
I appreciate the minimalist design of this Budnitz No. 1. The titanium frame not only looks sleek but promises durability and a comfortable ride, and the belt drive is a fantastic touch for reducing maintenance, especially in a city setting. However, being a single-speed bike with no suspension, its versatility is somewhat limited to flatter terrains and well-maintained roads or light gravel. The mechanical disc brakes are reliable, but some riders might prefer hydraulic for more nuanced stopping power. For its price, it's a significant investment, but you're getting a beautifully crafted, robust bicycle.
