The Pronto was specifically designed to meet the exacting standards of the Royal Mail, beating competition from around the world to become the sole choice for daily mail deliveries across the UK. Under Royal Mail’s name the ‘Mailstar’, there were over 5000 in active service at any one time.
With both front and rear carriers, it can carry loads up to 40 kilos whilst remaining steady and easy to ride. This is aided by the specially designed step-through frame, which allows for safe mounting and dismounting even when fully loaded. The Pronto can cope with all areas of commercial and industrial use, thanks to all-weather hub brakes and gears as well as robust puncture resistant tyres. This also makes it extremely low-maintenance, reducing the costs to your business in the long term.
Thoughtful features like easy trigger gear controls and a quick adjust seatpost means it can be used by all personnel without fuss and only the bare minimum of training. The Pronto is therefore a dependable mode of transport and a versatile alternative to licensed vehicles, all backed up by Pashley’s unique British hand-built quality.
The Pronto comes in the one frames size shown below, followed by their corresponding inside leg length range.
Frame Size | Inside Leg Length |
20" | 26.5-37" |
The frame size is the distance between the centrepoint of the cycle's bottom bracket (where the pedal arms extend from) and the top of the frame's seat tube (where the seatpost enters the frame).
Leg length should be measured from the sole of your foot to the inner top of your thigh (in inches) - please note that this is a different measurement to your trouser inside leg length.
