Tandems

At Tonka Cycle & Ski we are proud to offer you some of the best tandem bicycles. Located in Minnetonka Minnesota we carry Comotion and Electra tandem bikes.

Co-Motion Cycles is very practical about the way they do things. The bicycles shown on their website are a reflection of that. In fact, every one of their bicycles is evolved from past experience- from the bicycles they ride themselves to those built for customers.

Co-Motion has long enjoyed a reputation for building tandems that simply handle better. Precision handling makes their tandems safer and easier to control. A slower handling bike might lull you into a false sense of security, but when it comes to avoiding obstacles, or executing a perfect mountain descent, no tandem will respond like a Co-Motion. Experienced cyclists will notice that they don’t have to re-learn bike handling, while new cyclists find that riding a Co-Motion tandem is easier than they ever imagined.

Relax. You’re in control. Better control means you can relax and enjoy the ride. Confidence in your bicycle will make you a better cyclist, whether you’re stoking or captaining. When you know that your tandem will do exactly what you ask, you’ll be able to relax your upper body, let your spine flex and respond as you ride, and loosen your grip on the handlebars. Because you’ll expend less energy on control, you’ll have more to invest in pedaling. It’s no wonder a Co-Motion feels easier to ride.

Below you can check out a few of the models we stock and the click on the link to Comotion to check out their whole line…..

 

  • CO-MOTION Primera


    If you're looking for a tandem, you may already have found that it doesn't take long to become overwhelmed by the choices you're faced with. It's tempting to buy a tandem from a big-name bike company. But you'll find that a Co-Motion tandem will reward you many times over for just a little more.

    The heart and soul of a tandem is its frame, and like all Co-Motion tandems, the way we build the Primera is innovative and undeniably better. We use continuous top and lateral tubes made precisely to our specifications to build a stronger and straighter tandem. The result is an incredible performer that no mass-produced frame can match.

    To help you get the most from your Primera, we include fittings for water bottles, racks, and fenders. Co-Motion Cycle’s reputation for the best handling tandems is upheld with our unbeatable geometry and hand built Co-Motion tandem fork. The Primera is ready to take on loaded touring, but you can really feel the racing in its blood when you're spinning together smoothly on a long, smooth strip of pavement.

    You'll benefit from our experience as the top maker of premium tandems in the component selection as well. We have specified proven tandem components from the industry's best manufacturers to add even more value. It's the thoughtful details like these that will enhance your pride of ownership owning a genuine Co-Motion. And since the Primera is made to last a lifetime, you'll have the peace of mind that you've made an intelligent choice for years to come.

  • ELECTRA Hell Betty Tandem

    A hotrod built for two? You bet! Electra's Hellbetty sports the swoopy style and flat-foot pedaling fun that will make you and your partner in crime the talk of the town. This Betty's frame is made from quality aluminum for construction as strong as it is light. The cruiser has smooth, sealed 3-speed internal shifting that takes the sting out of hills and even shifts while stopped. Plus, the stylish fenders, plush saddles and tasseled grips add to the vintage feel of this dynamic duo dragster.

     

  • CO-MOTION Mocha


    Co-Motion has redesigned the Mocha with a lower profile fork and trimmed clearances to make it a better road bike with improved fitting range for a wider array of riders. The refitted Mocha will accept 26”tires ranging from 1” to 1.75” wide, offering great versatility for a wide range of uses. The Mocha is not a mountain bike, but it can venture off into the backcountry capably when called upon. Loaded down with everything you need on a self-contained tour, the Mocha really shines. Its smaller diameter 26" wheels are amazingly strong, and many people also prefer them for their worldwide availability and even for the reduced gear ratios due to their size.

    The Mocha's design and geometry exhibits the handling theory that is Co-Motion's trademark. The Mocha responds to rider input naturally and without hesitation, giving you extra confidence to push yourselves just a little harder, and have a lot more fun!

    Continuing the tradition of uncommon excellence, the Mocha is built with zonally-butted tandem tubing. Special processing makes this air-hardening steel tubing stronger after welding, for an amazing combination of low weight and unmatched reliability. The Mocha has everything you need to take it touring this weekend and to your club ride or tandem rally next. Add the Co-Pilot option and take it to the moon if you’d like. Wherever your Mocha takes you, we’ll be right there with you.

  • COMOTION Periscope Scout


    For 2007, taking the family along is a whole lot easier. The PeriScope Scout is a new member to the PeriScope Family. The success of our other PeriScope models has made it possible for us to produce the PeriScope Scout as a lower-priced alternative. Equipped with comfortable upright handlebars, twist-grip shifting, Avid rear disc brake, and a user-friendly attitude, the PeriScope Scout will impress you with its incredible value and solid work ethic.

    Sharing the same frame design as our PeriScope Torpedo 26 and Torpedo 700, the PeriScope Scout raises the bar on packing features no other bike manufacturer can offer at an incredibly low price. With its amazing ability to fit just about anyone from 4 to 99, you know we can fit you, all of your family and your friends too. The PeriScope Scout’s unbeatable capability and can-do attitude will bring your family together as it grows for years to come.

As a CO-MOTION tandem bike dealer in the Minneapolis area we offer you the best tandem bicycles available....

& for those less serious we sell the fun recrational cruiser tandems by ELECTRA.
