Ride in style and comfort.
The Aluboo Commuter is designed for urban riding. Sporting the silky-smooth ride quality of our Iron Bamboo, the Commuter damps all that vibration and harshness so common on paved and asphalt streets to provide a very pleasant way to travel the bike lane or path.

Wide and backswept handlebars, a more upright seating position, and plenty of comfy saddle options afford the pilot of the Commuter heads-up comfort and control.
The Commuter can be built with either derailleur or internally-geared drivetrains. Set yours up as a simple 1×9 drivetrain with rear derailleur, an 8- or 11-speed drivetrain, or even with Di2 electronic-shifting!
The Commuter’s frame is also compatible with the Gates Carbon Drive belt system–a grease-free chain substitute that weighs more than half the weight of a conventional chain and lasts twice as long. Never again worry about rolling up your pant leg or getting greasy chainring marks on your favorite jeans.
With the option of either mechanical or hydraulic disc brakes and a wide selection of tires to choose from, your Commuter will have excellent traction and stopping power for when things get slippery or wet.
Whether riding to work or play, when you’re cruising on the Aluboo Commuter everything is a bit smoother.
RECOMMENDED OPTIONS:
- Fenders (we like Woody’s compound curve bamboo fenders)
- Integrated front and rear lights with dynamo generator front hub (no need for batteries or charging!)
- Front and rear racks (available in bamboo)
Bob Samples –
I got my AluBoo first and it rode and looked so good my wife got one too. These are our favorite bikes! They ride incredibly nice, being both responsive and smooth. We especially like the belt drive, it is just so amazingly quiet. Plus we upgraded to the brooks saddle for added comfort. My only regret was I went with the SRAM internal shift and my wife got the Shimano and the Shimano is clearly superior. I wish I had gone the Shimano route too. In addition to riding so nice the bike is a very eye catching and I get lots of questions when ever we ride. Since I ride to work often I also added the bamboo fenders. I really like the way the look and work.
