The EZ Boarding Bike From Biria As Seen On NBC's Today Show Is a Huge Hit With Boomers And Seniors
The EZ Boarding bike from Biria is one of the coolest bikes that is designed specifically for older riders.
Lets face it guys. We boomers aren't as limber as we used to be and getting on and off of your bike isn't as easy as it was a few years ago.
With the EZ Board this is no longer an issue. It gives the rider advantages that you can't find all in one package elsewhere including a step through design so EZ Boarding Bike is more than a just name. It's a fact.
This bike is a comfort/commuter bike that comes fully equipped with raised handlebars, chain guard (if you commute you don't want chain grease on your good clothes), rear rack, and a very unique frame. Fenders and lights are optional.
This bike is designed for men as well as women and was featured on the NBC's TODAY show "best boomer bikes" segment.

It has no top tube and instead uses wide gussets to stiffen the frame and maintain the needed strength. This makes it extremely easy to mount and dismount. And, you have optional 3,7, or 8 speed, internally geared, rear hub for hassle free shifting.
Another feature is the pedals are positioned slightly forward of the seat post so the rider's legs are fully extended at the bottom of the pedal stroke and yet their feet can be flat on the ground while seated. The pedal forward design results in a bit longer wheelbase than a conventional bike. This, and the raised handlebars result in a nice comfortable seating and riding position.
Sizing could not be simpler. Since there is no top tube, and so much adjustment in the seat position, just follow the manufacturers recommendation according to your height.
It's hard to imagine how this bike could be made more boomer-friendly but, from my experience with the geared hub, I would recommend the 7 or 8 speed over the 3 speed hub.
If the many options, like the light system, are not important to you see all of the other Baria models at the store.
This bike is a German design that is hugely popular in Europe.
