State Bicycle Co. Core-Line - Delfin

State Bicycle Co. retired the Core-Line Delfin in May 2024. The Core-Line was the fixed gear and single speed series State became best known for, aimed at riders who wanted a fun, well-built bike without needing something race-ready. Like other Core-Line bikes of its era, Delfin was built on a durable steel frame with seat stay rack mounts, fork eyelets, and cable stops, and rolled on a flip-flop hub so it could be ridden fixed gear or freewheel. The standard setup ran a 44x16 gear ratio, deep-V wheels, front and rear caliper brakes, and Cult x Vans waffle-pattern grips.
