Happy Smile

These days, as temperatures rise, consumption tax rises, prices rise—everything seems to be going up.
But from us at SimWorks, our Smile Bar is actually seeing a price reduction.

SimWorks Smile Bar ¥8,800- →¥6,800- (excluding tax)

An incredible 2,000 yen price cut—this is a "smiling" event you won't want to miss.

The ways you can use this Smile Bar are infinite, depending on your own ideas, but I thought I'd share one suggestion, using my own bike as an example.

I might be biased, but isn't this the "Best Smile Bar Bike"? (laughs)
It's built to sit right between a cyclocross bike and a mountain bike.
Riding more aggressively in the mountains than a 'cross bike.
Riding more comfortably on the road than a mountain bike.

It is only because of the versatility of the Smile Bar that such an all-around bike can be built.
Surprisingly, the Smile Bar has a very high repeat customer rate; some customers find that once they use one, they want it for all their other bikes, buying one after another.
For the record, I use two of them myself.

Let’s dissect that repeat rate and versatility a little bit.
First, from the front.
It has a wide width befitting a mountain drop bar.
When you grip the drops on dirt sections, the stability during descents is outstanding.

Next, from the side.
If you set the tops flat, the drops sit at the perfect angle for mountain riding.
It's wonderful.
While this silhouette might not be for everyone, I find this angle irresistible for off-road use.
This angle ensures a wide field of view and eases any sense of fear.

Finally, from the back corner.
This shy, pigeon-toed line.
This exquisite flare keeps cruising on-road comfortable.

This is one of my own answers in the pursuit of building a relaxed bike that can go anywhere.
How does it look to you?
Changing just your handlebars can completely transform both the look and the feel of your bike.
For instance, I think this Smile Bar would be a great match for the slightly "chubby" bikes we introduced the other day.
If you're interested, please come by and talk to us.
It's a meaningful way to spend your Golden Week.

We look forward to seeing you.
