The PUBLIC R18 Drop Bar was designed with the commuter, adventurer, and everyday cyclist in mind. With design inspired by the past for demands of the present, this 18-speed bike’s versatile geometry and lightweight Chromoly frame make it great for navigating the daily commute, putting in some extra fitness miles after work, or heading out of town for longer weekend adventures.

Up-to-date features like a 1 1/8" threadless stem and modern, dual control shifters allow many riding positions from semi-upright to aerodynamic and ensure easy-to-operate, light and responsive shifting. The PUBLIC R18 Drop Bar features an upgraded Shimano Sora 2x9 drivetrain that boasts the same reliable performance as far more expensive road bikes and is ready to ease you up the steepest hills.

Unlike traditional road bikes, the PUBLIC R18 Drop Bar was designed for urban utility with features like alloy fenders to keep you dry in inclement conditions, front and rear rack mounts, and secondary inline brake levers that offer convenient braking in city traffic from the most upright position. Rims capable of 35c clearance (w/o fenders) smooth rough city streets with nimble handling, and quick-release wheels make it especially easy to carry on a roof rack for rides out of town.

A visual homage to rides of the past, but with the benefits of modern geometry and components, the PUBLIC R18 is perfect for riders looking for an entry-level road bike that's ready to meet the demands of both urban and recreational riding. The PUBLIC R18 Drop Bar is ready to be your go-anywhere, do-anything road bike.

              Strong, Durable, and SIMPLE Frother
              Color: Gray
              Excellent frother! It is ‘SIMPLE’, yet very efficient blending. I love that it included a set of long-lasting batteries. The motor on this frother is strong and works great. The item itself is of durable quality. I have had mine for about 9 months and use it daily for my coffee and other drinks throughout my week, and the battery is still running. I even give it a spin after washing the frother spinner/coil. This helps to dry it thoroughly, as the motor is strong enough to blow away any excess water - and still - the batteries are functioning well. The price is just right…very affordable compared to other brands. I’m very pleased with this purchase and absolutely love that it also came with a stand. I display it on my counter everyday. There are 3 solid and Simple colors to choose from, making this an easier shopping experience. Excellent choice for gifting!

              Found the perfect chai frother on a budget!
              Color: Glossy Black
              Okay so I'll be honest, I spent way too long researching milk frothers before pulling the trigger on this one lol. As someone who grew up drinking chai every single day, having a good frother is kind of a big deal in my house. This little thing has been absolutely worth every penny. First off – it's SO easy to use. My 7 year old actually thinks it's the coolest thing ever and wants to help make my morning coffee now, which is honestly adorable. It just works, no fuss, no learning curve. What really sold me compared to other options was the USB-C charging. No more buying AA batteries every few weeks – that stuff adds up! I just plug it into the same charger as my phone. Super convenient. And here's a small thing that matters more than you'd think – it stands on its own! I don't need a separate stand cluttering up my already busy kitchen counter. Build quality feels solid, the stainless steel whisk looks clean and is easy to rinse off. For the price, honestly I expected less. Highly recommend if you're on the fence!

              Nice handheld frother!
              Color: Glossy Black
              Handheld frother....tiny but mighty! Holds a charge for a number of uses before needing to plug in. Easy to use, easy to clean and works well. Doesn't take up a bunch of real estate on the counter or in the drawer. I would totally recommend this product.

              Perfect for Protein Coffee & So Easy to Use
              Color: Gray
              The SIMPLETaste Handheld Milk Frother works great and has become part of my morning routine. It mixes protein powder into my coffee so much better than stirring with a spoon—smooth, frothy, and no clumps. It’s lightweight, easy to use, and powerful enough to quickly blend coffee, protein powder, creamers, or even matcha in seconds. Cleanup is simple, and it stores easily in a drawer. If you love adding protein to your morning coffee, this little frother is a game changer!

              The Stand Is the Unexpected Favorite
              Color: Gray
              I use this at my morning coffee station for mixing powdered supplements into my coffee shake — more than one goes in and it handles them without complaint. For a small battery-operated device it has real power. Cleans easily. The foam quality is good for home lattes without any particular technique required. But my favorite part is, unexpectedly, the stand. It’s sturdy and well made and gives me somewhere sensible to set a dripping frother instead of it lying on the counter. A small thing that earns its counter space.
