Golden Cycles GC
BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy. Prices constantly change and it’s impossible to compare them all yourself.
We search for prices on over 120 bike retailers to guarantee that we find the lowest prices – to save you time and money.
It’s a promise we stand behind: If you find a lower price on a bike elsewhere, we will sell it to you for 10% less. For example, if you find a bike for $480 that we have listed at $500, we will offer you to buy it for $432 through BikeRide. The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.
If you find a lower price, email us at [email protected] with documentation of the price. We’re committed to making sure that the cost of a bike does not keep you from cycling!

Bottom line
While the Golden Cycles Single-Speed was not recommended for trick, track or endurance riding, it was seen as a good entry-level single-speed or fixed gear bike. Others chose it as a sound base for a project. Components were low to mid-grade but even so, this bike was seen as good value for the asking price.Expert Reviews
