Features
The Priority Eight is the perfect sport hybrid. It utilizes a combination of low-maintenance design, sporty yet comfortable geometry, and rugged durability to accommodate riders of all levels, from novices to seasoned enthusiasts.
NO RUST, NO GREASE
The signature feature of all Priority models is the rust/grease-free Gates Carbon Drive belt. Utilizing technology derived from motorsports, the carbon fiber tensile cords that reinforce the belt allow it to last 2-3x longer than a standard chain, and the bike-specific tooth profile of the belt and sprockets help it feel smooth in all riding conditions. While a chain requires frequent lubrication and maintenance, the belt stays clean and efficient. Just give it a post-ride rinse and you’re ready to roll!
STOP ON A DIME
Hydraulic disc brakes are super reliable, work in all weather conditions, handle varied terrain with ease, and require very little maintenance. Paired with 700c x 32mm tires that have a puncture protection layer and reflective sidewalls, you'll be rolling in comfort and confidence here, there, and everywhere.
TAKE IT UP A GEAR
A low-drag Shimano Alfine 8-speed performance hub provides all the gearing you'll need to conquer climbing, commuting, or casual cruising. The Eight's internally geared hub is sealed from the elements making it easy to maintain and ideal for crummy weather riding. Plus, trigger shifters make banging through gears—even at a dead stop—an absolute breeze.
ALL DAY FUN
This sport hybrid is designed with speed AND comfort in mind. When it comes to the Eight, you won’t need to worry about being hunched over or uncomfortable. It's a nimble, athletic bike that still provides an upright frame geometry to keep your back and shoulders happy. Plus, it features multiple braze-on mounts for racks, fenders, bags, water bottles, and/or a child seat.
ROAD DAMPENING COMFORT
The Eight was designed with intention. It features a carbon fiber fork and seatpost that dampen bumps and reduce overall weight. The WTB Volt saddle is comfortable for cruising and performs great on fitness rides. Silicone foam grips are easy on the hands and provide additional shock absorption. At just 27 lbs, you can carry it up a flight of stairs or easily lift it onto a car rack.
