The Lavender Haze commits to it fully: a deep, saturated purple-toned lavender across the whole frame and fork, set against completely blacked-out components. The contrast is what makes it work. The colour would be sweet on its own, and the black hardware keeps it sharp instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeneath the paint it is the same honest machine as the rest of the Core-Line: a durable steel frame with seat stay rack mounts, fork eyelets and cable stops, a flip-flop hub, and parts chosen for longevity rather than for a spec sheet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSteel that suits the way cities are built\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSteel flexes where aluminium transmits. On brick, cobbles and tram rails, the surfaces most riders here actually spend their time on, that difference is felt in the hands and lower back after twenty minutes, not in a laboratory. The frame also accepts additions: seat stay rack mounts and fork eyelets take a rear rack, mudguards or a front basket whenever your needs change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFixed or freewheel, decided by one wheel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe flip-flop hub carries a 16T freewheel on one side and a fixed cog on the other. The bike arrives set up on the freewheel side, so you can coast from the first ride. Turning the rear wheel around gives you the direct, connected feel of riding fixed. A few minutes of work, no additional parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eChoose your cockpit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRiser bars with Cult x Vans waffle-pattern grips are standard and give an upright, confident position in traffic. Bullhorn bars move you forward for a faster, more purposeful ride. Drop bars with bar tape suit longer distances. All three builds are fitted with front and rear caliper brakes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame:\u003c\/strong\u003e durable steel, seat stay rack mounts, fork eyelets, cable stops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFork:\u003c\/strong\u003e steel, with eyelet mounts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDropouts:\u003c\/strong\u003e horizontal, with integrated chain tensioners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheelset:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40 mm Deep V rims, high-flange sealed-bearing hubs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTyres:\u003c\/strong\u003e 700 x 28c (maximum recommended 28c; up to 32c fitted by some riders, clearance varies)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHub:\u003c\/strong\u003e flip-flop, 16T freewheel and 16T fixed cog included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGear ratio:\u003c\/strong\u003e 44 x 16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandlebars:\u003c\/strong\u003e riser bars with Cult x Vans grips (standard), or bullhorn \/ drop bars with bar tape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrakes:\u003c\/strong\u003e front and rear caliper hand brakes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSaddle:\u003c\/strong\u003e synthetic leather with steel rails\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePedals:\u003c\/strong\u003e platform pedals included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Extra Small (46 cm), Small (50 cm), Medium (54 cm), Large (58 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e approximately 11 kg (54 cm frame, as pictured)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e high-gloss Lavender Haze with all-black components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 years on the frame, 1 year on non-consumable parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhich frame size should I choose?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a guide: Extra Small (46 cm) suits riders of roughly 152 to 163 cm, Small (50 cm) suits 163 to 170 cm, Medium (54 cm) suits 170 to 180 cm and Large (58 cm) suits 180 to 188 cm. Inside leg length matters as much as height, and riders on a boundary often prefer the smaller frame for quicker handling. If you are between sizes, send your height and inside leg measurement to L'Hirondelle Bike Shop in Meppel and we will confirm the right frame before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHow does a high-gloss finish hold up compared to matte?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGloss is the easier of the two to live with. It cleans with a damp cloth, resists staining better than matte paint, and light scuffs can often be polished out, something matte finishes do not allow. The trade-off is that gloss shows fingerprints and swirl marks more readily, so use a soft cloth rather than a brush when you wash it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eDo I have to ride it fixed?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. It is delivered ready to freewheel. The fixed cog is already mounted on the reverse side of the hub for whenever you want to try it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eHow is the bike delivered, and does it arrive assembled?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt ships directly from State Bicycle Co.'s European warehouse to your address, around 90 percent assembled. The final setup, meaning handlebars, front wheel, pedals, saddle height and brake and drivetrain adjustment, must be completed by a qualified mechanic before the first ride. Any bike shop can do this in under an hour. If you are near Meppel, we can build it for you at L'Hirondelle Bike Shop by appointment. Contact us before ordering and we will arrange it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat does the 5-year warranty cover, and what do I need to keep?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFive years on the frame against manufacturing defects, one year on non-consumable parts. Wear items such as tyres, pads, cables, chain, grips and bar tape are excluded. Important: State Bicycle Co. requires proof of professional assembly for the warranty to be valid, so keep the invoice from whoever builds the bike. That document is what supports any future claim, and a claim can be refused without it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I fit a rack and mudguards?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Seat stay rack mounts and fork eyelets accept a standard rear rack and full-length mudguards without adapters or P-clips. With 28c tyres and guards together the clearance is tight but workable, so it is worth having them fitted at the same time as the initial build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eIs this frame different from the other Core-Line models?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Every Core-Line shares the same steel frame, geometry, wheelset and drivetrain. The difference between a Lavender Haze, a Wulf and a Rigby is entirely the finish and component colour package, so choose on looks alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhere are these bikes made?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eState Bicycle Co. designs its bikes in Tempe, Arizona. Frames are manufactured in Asia to the brand's specification. European stock is distributed from State Bicycle Co.'s EU warehouse.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"State Bicycle Co.","offers":[{"title":"Riser \/ Extra Small (46 cm)","offer_id":54833321509205,"sku":"796201647419","price":474.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Riser \/ Small (50 cm)","offer_id":54833321541973,"sku":"796201647426","price":474.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Riser \/ Medium (54 cm)","offer_id":54833321574741,"sku":"796201647433","price":474.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Riser \/ Large (58 cm)","offer_id":54833321607509,"sku":"796201647440","price":474.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bull Horn \/ Extra Small (46 cm)","offer_id":54833321640277,"sku":"796201647495","price":499.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bull Horn \/ Small (50 cm)","offer_id":54833321673045,"sku":"796201647501","price":499.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bull Horn \/ Medium (54 cm)","offer_id":54833321705813,"sku":"796201647518","price":499.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bull Horn \/ Large (58 cm)","offer_id":54833321738581,"sku":"796201647525","price":499.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Drop \/ Extra Small (46 cm)","offer_id":54833321771349,"sku":"796201647457","price":499.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Drop \/ Small (50 cm)","offer_id":54833321804117,"sku":"796201647464","price":499.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Drop \/ Medium (54 cm)","offer_id":54833321836885,"sku":"796201647471","price":499.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Drop \/ Large (58 cm)","offer_id":54833321869653,"sku":"796201647488","price":499.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0995\/9387\/9893\/files\/state-bicycle-core-line-lavender-haze-side-riser.jpg?v=1788768850","url":"https:\/\/hirondellebikeshop.com\/products\/state-bicycle-core-line-lavender-haze-fixed-gear-bike","provider":"Hirondelle Bike Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
