What bike should i get for riding on the side of the highway/intown? |
i need to know what type of bike shoudl i get i cant spend that much but i will prob be riding on the side of the highway and then intown. i heard that road bikes went that good becuase they were not that rugged when it came to alot of riding. i want speed and am wondering about the messanger bikes. i dont want a mountain bike (ill get one later for that) any input would be nice Hybrid bike. it is cheaper and is meant for the riding ou want to do. no mountain bikes, the big tires make it harder to pedal around in the city. a hybrid bike doest use the big knoby tires and shocks. hybrids are meant for city riding and are comfortable too. dont get a road or racing bike, as it probably wont hold up. good luck. (hybrid bikes may not sound common, but there are more popular actually than mountain bikes) Source(s): bike shop owner hmmmm i would say a mountain bike. i'm so sorry but i think that would be the best choice. i have one and i can go up a pile of rocks, through small puddles and on my street and the tires don't need air for a couple months. Messanger bikes sre lame.(lol) I hop ei helped even though i said mountain bike (don't get a huffy, they suck) My own world $400 for this! http://www2.trekbikes.com/images/bikes_m...

Enjoy how owning a bike and having it work WONDERFULLY for YEARS feels! Bike Shop Manager - Top100 & Tennessee's Largest Trek Dealer I faced the same problem, so I ended up getting a mountain bike. But, I didn't leave it stock. I put 'street' tires on it and lowered the handlebars, put on a cycle computer, a gel seat, and bar-ends. It worked great for getting up and down curbs, and (in my opinion, anyways) got great speed! Plus, you could switch out the tires and ride in the mountains very quickly. With the street tires I found that I could maintain a fairly steady 25 km/h on the flats. If I were to do it today, the only thing I do differently would be to get one of those Gary Fisher bikes with the 29-inch wheels! (Then again, I do ride a recumbent now - but that's a different tale!) |
