CSB
Canada's Go To Community Service Bike
MSRP $1749
The Brodie CSB is the first dedicated Community Services Use bicycle, designed and evolved from our working relationship with several western Canadian jurisdictions, including the Vancouver Parks Board, EMT, Fire Department Inspectors, Vancouver Police Department and RCMP Detachments. Previous bikes used for public service departments have been mountain bikes designed for sport and around price points. These have required modifications that take time, expense and compromise the resulting bike.
Sizing: S-16/M-17/L-18.5/XL-20
The first dedicated Community Services use bicycle designed for and with jurisdictions in Canada.
The new Brodie CSB is purpose built bicycle for Community Services, based on current mountain bike design, with specific frames and parts selection carefully selected for use by various community and emergency services.
The CSB comes in 4 different sizes to support riders of all sizes from 5’3” to well over 6’ tall.
This bicycle is available Community Service Departments, law enforcement and emergency services agencies only.
Built specifically for and with various community service departments.
The Brodie CSB Subdued Graphics with room for custom decals on top tube and no model name visible on the frame.
The frame has been redesigned with a sloping top tube for a lower standover height for quicker and easier mounting and dismounts that inspires more confidence.
100 mm travel Front suspension takes out the vibrations that cause hand and wrist fatigue and smoothes out bumpy terrain.
The Sun Tour suspension fork also comes with a lock out switch for added efficiency and transitioning from rough to smooth surfaces.
Designed in Canada for both urban and rural environments.
The CSB comes frame size specific wheel sizes foe optimum maneuverability and roll-over performance. With 27.5” Wheels on the Small and 29” Wheels on the M, L & XL.
Spec'd with fast rolling KENDA “KWICK” 2.0 tires with the Kevlar Belts for better Flat protection and added durability.
The “KWICK” have a low profile tread great for fast riding on pavement but are tough enough for hard packed trails.
The Alex rims have welded seams for extra durability and laced with DT-Swiss branded spokes onto sealed bearing hubs that also minimize maintenance.

The 1X wide ratio rear gearing comes with a 32T front ring and a 11-42T rear cassette. This provides a very easy to use and a very wide range of gearing to tackle any terrain and incline.
