With summer just around the corner, a cheerful brand-new bike with a one-of-kind design is more than welcome. And, if one the coolest music bands ever is part of the creation process, it’s even better.
A pretty young company in the bicycle-manufacturing world, State Bicycle Co. is all about individuality and environmental awareness. They only release limited edition models, with unique designs, so that each person who owns one of these bikes is guaranteed to stand out from the crowd.

The company has released several exciting collaborations so far, with various artists. Their latest drop is a limited-edition Klunker bike with two color options available, part of a capsule collection created together with The Grateful Dead.

Described as combining features of both a mountain bike and a beach cruiser, the State Bicycle Co. Klunker gives off retro vibes and makes you dream about leisure and happy days. And the new, Grateful Dead-inspired graphic elements look turn it into the perfect summer bike.

The Lightning Bolt Klunker looks striking with a red and blue frame and it’s decorated with Grateful Dead 13-point lightning bolt symbols. The Dancing Bears Klunker shows a vibrant contrast between the black frame and the multicolored graphic logos, inspired by the famous Grateful Dead Dancing Bears.

Each of these bikes is built with a durable steel frame, BMX stem and handlebars, and aluminum rims fitted with 2.3 in WTB Mountain Bike Tires. They come with a retro-style leatherette saddle and the latest collection also includes three colorful saddles, so that customers can rock the total Grateful Dead look.

And, as an added fun bonus, these limited-edition Klunkers also have an integrated bottle-opener in the front.

The collection also includes bar ends, foot straps, a stem cap and other accessories, all with the same vibrant, tie-dye colorway and famous Grateful Dead symbols. Not to mention the clothing items that are made entirely from recycled fabrics, also available in vibrant colors.

If you want to bring some color and fun into your life, you can get one of the new State Bicycle The Grateful Dead limited-edition Klunkers for $549.
