How to choose the right bike sale for you
There’s a bike for every kind of ride. To maximize your cycling experience, you’re going to want a set of wheels that tailors to your specific needs.
The biggest concern when deciding on a bike ought to be terrain. If you’re sticking to pavement, you’re probably looking at a road bike, an e-bike, or a cruiser of some kind. If the trail or gravel road beckons, you’re going to want a mountain bike (check out these mountain bike destinations) or similar, and one that can eat up the many bumps you’re sure to encounter. Likewise, a ride through hill country will require different gears for pedaling ease while a flat commute is deal for a fixed-gear or three-speed bike.
Consider distance too when choosing a bike. Obviously, road bikes are cut out for day-long rides but we’re not all looking to go full-on Lance Armstrong. Some of us just need something to get us and our messenger bags ten or so blocks down the road every now and then (if that’s the case go vintage or opt for a cruiser). Others need convenience and packability (try a folding bike). And some want something easier on their backs (try a recumbent bike). If you plan to be riding for long durations, you’re going to want to be co comfy, so think about how the frame is set and related features like saddle type and handlebar arrangement.
If you’re planning on making this your main mode of transportation, you’re going to want something reliable. Many people bike to work and rely on a certain frame style that allows them to wear office clothes while riding. Others prefer a sportier bike and stretchy cycling clothes and changing outfits once at their destination. Also, consider the frame measurement as bikes come in many different sizes.
