What do you all think about using a police bicycle as a persoanal bicycle around town and on trailers? |
would a police bicycle be a good general purpose bicycle for all kinda uses? like traveling around city streets for pleasure and busnis (letter carrier) as well as using on the weekends (and when ever the heart feels like it) for off roading. thanks I'm unsure what you are asking. Is someone selling used police bikes? Otherwise all the police bikes I ever rode were the same as any other hybrid mountain bike. Our handlebars were a little higher on the stem so we could sit up a little straighter to see our surrounding better but other than having decals on them saying police and a rider on it carrying a lot of equipment on his belt ( and sweating a lot because of the bullet resistant vest) there is no difference between a high quality hybrid and a police bike. Oh ya, we had the kickstand mounted European style ( it makes getting on and off faster) and of course a good sized trunk that said police on , but that was it. My department used Mercedes (awful but had disc brakes), Cannondale (my favorite) and Fuji (some of them were labeled Smith & Wesson) and of course Trek. Source(s): Retired police, spent a couple of years as a sergeant on bike patrol (summers only) Police bikes are a good in-town bike for almost any purpose. Thre are lighter bikes that might be a little easier to maneuver if you are just going for a ride, though. Me, retired Police Officer What? Did you even re-read your question? You do know that Yahoo offers a free spell check, right? |
