Origin

The City Cross is Author's purely urban commuter — optimised for ease of daily use over performance. It typically includes fender mounts, rack mounts, and ergonomic handlebars, accepting that a commuter bike needs to carry things and handle weather. It sits below the Hybrid in the range but is arguably better adapted to its specific purpose.
