Built for the weekday. Made for the weekend.
Some bikes are made for commuting. Others are built for adventure. The Fairdale Weekender Archer does both.
Meet your new favorite way to get around. Designed for the daily ride through Jersey City, spontaneous escapes beyond the city, and everything in between, the Weekender Archer brings together timeless steel construction, all-terrain versatility, and effortless everyday style.
Finished in a distinctive Gloss Lemon Grass, this isn't just another commuter bike. It's the kind of bike you'll find yourself making excuses to ride.
Morning coffee in Hamilton Park. The waterfront commute. A weekend ride out of the city.
The Weekender Archer is designed to make every ride feel like an opportunity to explore.
Its premium 100% chromoly steel frame offers a comfortable, responsive ride, while the relaxed geometry keeps you feeling confident whether you're navigating busy city streets or venturing onto gravel paths.
Wide Maxxis Pace tires, reliable mechanical disc brakes, and a simple 9-speed drivetrain give you the freedom to take the road less traveled.
Less planning. More exploring.
