When you’re big enough for a ten speed, you’re big enough for a Browning
Grade I Men’s 10 Speed $136.50*; Grade I Girls’ 5 Speed $124.50*; Grade I Men’s & Girls’ 3 Speed $116.50*. *Suggested Retail.
The name Browning has helped a lot of people over the years.
Just ask your dad or grandpa what a tough, reliable hunting gun a Browning is.
Browning rods and reels have tamed all kinds of fighting fish, from Peoria to the Pacific.
And today, a Browning Grade I Ten Speed can help you. Get to school faster. Take any hill you can find. And get in shape for the team.
The Grade I’s got a Shimano “Tourney” Derailleur with Super Shifters mounted high on the stem, close to your hands. You get smooth shifts, so you can get into high gear pronto!
The Shimano center pull brakes with safety levers stop you on a dime.
Dirt can’t get into the strong, one piece wheel hubs.
The tough steel pedals are anchored to super strong, but lightweight, alloy cranks.
The backbone of your Browning bike is a top quality steel frame with brazed lugs.
And the Grade I has reflectors on the front, back, spokes and pedals, so it’s safer if you get caught out after dark.
Take your pick of four of the greatest colors in town: Candy Apple Red, Metallic Blue, Bronze Green & Aztec Yellow.
(This great bike also comes in a girls’ five speed model with easy to use trigger shifter right next to grip.)
Why don’t you and your dad take a peek at Browning bikes at your Browning dealer, downtown?
