Dawes 2025 Venture 1.0 Low Step Hybrid Bike 700c Wheel, 6 Speed - Silver - 18.5" Frame

From Dawes, the 2025 Venture 1.0 Low Step is a minimalist Hybrid Bike designed for comfortable, low-maintenance riding across city streets, canal towpaths and gravel paths. Its low step frame is shaped to maximise confidence when getting on and off, making it a practical choice for commuting, exploring or relaxed weekend rides.

A lightweight aluminium frame is paired with a sturdy steel fork, while a single front chainring and 6-speed Shimano gearing keep shifting straightforward with enough range for varied terrain. Alloy V-brakes provide reliable, easy-to-maintain stopping power. Comfort is prioritised with ergonomic grips, swept-back handlebars and a padded Dawes comfort saddle, helping every journey feel smooth and controlled. Frame bosses for mudguards, racks and a kickstand add everyday versatility, so you can tailor the Venture 1.0 to suit your routine.
