Hey /n/!
I could really use your help for something. I am writing a film about bike couriers in a mostly atemporal setting. This is set in a biome-rich beachside town so I would like a few different options for different terrains. Most importabtly of all I would really like to know what the ultimate "jack-of-all-trades" bike would look like if money were not an option.

Thank you for this bikebros!

Bike messengers are some of the poorest people in America. Like literally they are usually squatter punks or live with their mom

If you're looking for a specific model of Bicycle, consider either of these two;
>1.) Electra Townie (best selling bike in America, common commuter/beach cruiser type bike popular mostly with boomers but sometimes seen as Uber delivery bikes with rear racks installed) could go well with your "biome-rich beachside town" setting
>2.) Chinese Flying Pigeon (single speed all-around road/hybrid bicycle, also the best-selling bicycle in China) it basically looks like what most people picture in their heads when they try to imagine the "default bicycle"
Otherwise, you could also just go for a European City bike, really what matters is what type of frame you think will work for your setting (Cruiser, Road, Hybrid, Mountain bike.etc)

I have an in-world justification for the aquisition of parts.

Incredibly helpful, thank you! I wouldn't mind looking at some of the more visually striking or obscure examples if you have any. The idea is a team of bicycle couriers with different bikes for different terrains and one messenger with a bike spec'd to handle almost any terrain decently.

I read this as "berdache town", that would for sure be an interesting book, bike couriers in a town of berdahes
