The State Bicycle Core-Line is a steel fixed-gear and single-speed bike built for city riding and everyday commuting. Its flip-flop hub lets you run it fixed or freewheel, and the frame has rack mounts, fork eyelets and cable stops for adding racks, fenders or a front brake. It is heavier and less racy than aluminum track bikes, but the steel frame and sealed-bearing wheels hold up to daily use. Riders and reviewers praise its looks, value and simple setup, while noting the weight and the need to add a brake if you want one.
