The Electra bicycle company is relatively new to the cycle industry when compared to standards such as Schwinn and Raleigh, but makes some of the best looking bikes out there. They have been receiving some recent press about their two new Alexander Girard bikes from the design community, but if you're not familiar with the company and their complete line, you should be.
Whether you like surferesque cruiser bikes, preppy ladylike wheels or rat fink rides for the wee ones, they have it. They have 5 different collections, many styles and apparently do more than just look good, having been the recipient of Bicycle magazine's editor's picks and other awards.
First off, I'll show you the two new Alexander Girard bicycles:
Electra Bikes has added two special Alexander Girard Bicycles to their 2009 models. The Madonna and the Tree of Life bikes are in available in Ladies' styles only, in the colors shown above and are part of the Amsterdam Collection.

Their collections consist of The Amsterdam, The Cruiser, The Townie, The Kids as well as Tandem bikes. All of their bikes are aesthetically pleasing with great looking graphics, colors and designs. They have a vast range with styles running the gamut from preppy to beachy, hot rodder to florals, retro to streamlined.
