Our review

The PUBLIC R18 Drop Bar was designed with the commuter, adventurer, and everyday rider in mind. This (2×9) 18-speed bike’s versatile geometry and lightweight Chromoly frame make it great for soaking up the bumps while navigating the daily commute, logging some fitness miles, or weekend adventures. With semi-upright and aerodynamic riding position options, the R18 Drop Bar ensures an easy-to-operate, responsive, yet comfortable experience all in one. Designed with utility in mind, the bike is spec'd with alloy fenders to keep you clean and dry, front and rear rack mounts, and secondary inline brake levers that offer convenient braking while riding in the most upright position. An homage to road bikes of the past, but with the benefits of modern geometry and components, the PUBLIC R18 is perfect for riders looking for an entry-level road bike, daily commuter, or pure recreation.
