With elements of both a road bike and mountain bike, the 2012 Specialized Ariel Base Women's Hybrid Bike is for the female rider looking to zip through the weekday commute and head out for weekend adventure. The Ariel Base features an A1 Premium Aluminum frame with women's specific recreational geometry, Body Geometry Women's Riva saddle, and a 75mm-travel SR Suntour suspension fork for a plush ride.

  • SR Suntour 8-speed triple crankset gives her all the gears she needs for varied terrain, with a chainguard for added protection
