Overview
About this bike
Like Faraday's award-winning original, the Cortland packs plenty of power into an elegant package. A custom chromoly steel frame results in a smooth, supple ride that will stand the test of time. The internally-geared Shimano Alfine rear hub is the ultimate hassle-free drivetrain solution, and the Gates belt drive means no more messy chains. Custom bamboo fenders and leather grips blend style and functionality, while the pedal-assist front hub motor will make you want to get out a map and plan a new adventure.
