2022 Fairdale Weekender Archer

One of the first bikes that Fairdale ever made was the Weekender. They envisioned a “light-tourer” that would work as a weekday commuter and a weekend getaway machine.

Over the years Fairdale have refined the Weekender, but its focus has stayed the same. The riding position is comfortable for the long haul or an evening ride. The shifting is wonderfully simple to use, and the disc brakes get a nice power-boost from their own Linear Slic Kables, made for Fairdale by Odyssey®.

The Weekender has a redesigned geometry to work with 27.5 x 2.0” tires, and also leaves plenty of space for compatibility with 700c wheels if you ever feel like changing it up.

Gloss Black is available in Medium, Large, and X-Large.
Sage Green is available in X-Small, Small, Medium, Large, and X-Large.
