Fairdale Weekender Archer (SRAM)

The Weekender Archer is Fairdale's longest-running model, staying true to its original intent. It’s an easy-going bike that's perfect for a casual ride but capable of so much more.

Fairdale has refined the Weekender model over the years, and this version now features an SRAM X5 gear shift with Direct Route technology, making gear changes feel effortless.

Built around the comfortable, tour-tested, and durable chromoly steel Weekender frame, the Archer has the potential to open up the world of cycling to you. It includes an easy-to-use gear system, road-smoothing high-volume tyres, the all-weather stopping power of disc brakes, and a commanding riding position thanks to the Archer handlebars.

The Archer retains the Weekender's geometry, designed for 27.5 x 2.0" Continental tyres, with plenty of space for 700c wheels if you decide to switch them out.
