Green Supercycle Wedge, single speed?

Submitted by RideCCM on Wed, 12/25/2013 - 20:34

While riding on my Marauder, I often get stopped by people who had one before and sometimes when I ask them which one they had, between the single speed orange, the 3-speed yellow, or even the orange Wedge, they reply the green one.

I've been poking around, I know the Marauder was only in Hugger Yellow & Hugger Orange, then there's the Wedge...

All the Wedge I've seen on google are 3-speed in orange (& red?) and while looking, I dropped in another forum, one was mentionning a green Wedge as the single speed version.

I have never seen any proof of it and was wondering if anyone know about this.

My parents got me a wedge at Canadian Tire and it was a deep orange  3 speed

Not a good bike for the hills of Guelph. My 16" front wheel would bob and vibrate while going down a steep hill.

Thanks
