Cruiser bikes have what is known as balloon tires to go over packed sand - therefore the name, beach cruiser.

Like any other bike you care to name, the beach cruiser comes in types designed for men, females and young children.

Almost every key bike manufacturer makes at least one particular cruiser model, and there are new producers out there. Examine out Electra, Nirve, Kustom Kruiser, and Aero-Rapid ahead of you make any selection on what sort of cruiser to purchase.

To take just one example, Nirve has a number of types of Cruisers to select from, and you can check out the styles and specifications at their site.

The "Classic" series consists of the Classic, the Fifty-Three, the Knuckle, the Kilroy, and the Forty-Nine. Cool names, but you'll have to scope them out to see if you like them.

Their Islander series consists of the Sunflower, the Island Flower, and the Lahaina. As you might count on, these bikes are decorated with paintings of flowers on the frame! These bikes are for girls or women, and have 3 speeds.
