Covet: Globe Bikes 2011 Daily Models

While I’m a big fan of the Globe bikes I’ve ridden, I’m still a sucker for the newer models.

For 2011, Globe is releasing the new Daily model with a steeper head tube, mustache handlebars, stock front basket and covered drive train. While I’m not a huge fan of the small rear rack and derailleur shifting of the other models, the Daily 01 singlespeed and Daily 03 step-through singlespeed are pretty great looking daily use bikes.

Now, I’d just like to see Globe use steel for the frames as the alloy, while lighter, doesn’t really dampen bumps as well as steel could.
