Nothing special but near maintenance-free. It used to be my son's bike. It has an old style threaded fork. I put a threadless stem and a BMX handlebar on it for a more upright seating position. It has 27.5" wheels and a whisper-quiet internally geared 8-speed Shimano Nexus hub and mystery Shimano hydraulic brakes that work fine stopping a combined weight of 245 pounds going downhill. If anybody can tell me what model those brakes are that would be helpful. The bike is a few years old. I use it now a few times a week for short rides, usually 7-15 miles. I might get a surfboard carrier for it but I'm not sure I want to ride 2 miles uphill when going home from the beach.
The seat is usually a few inches higher. I let someone shorter ride just before I took those pictures.
