Choosing a Bicycle
Buy a Bike to Fit
Your Personality
Every
bicyclist has a different personality and the bike he or she selects should fit
with it. It’s not just size and price tag that a bike rider should consider,
although those factors matter, too. When buying a bike, think about where, why,
how, and when you plan to ride your two-wheeler. If you’re planning to commute
in the city to work, buy a bike that’s highly visible to motorists, has a
comfortable seat and handlebars, and can handle dirt and pavement. You can also
accessorize it with a fender, lighting, and a gear rack. Maybe you want a bike
designed to handle the toughest terrain: gravel, rocky hills, and dirt trails.
If so, test-ride a few mountain bikes, because the full-suspension, wide tires,
disc brakes, and lower gears give you power and stability you need off-road.
Biking
is not only great exercise; it’s good for the planet because no gasoline is required
to power your vehicle. For athletes who want cardio workouts without wrecking
their knees jogging, road bikes are perfect for racing around burning up the
miles. The skinny tires on road bikes are designed to go fast. If you can’t
quite decide whether you should get a folding bike, a beach cruiser, or a
hybrid, take a look at this infographic full of details. Once you have it
narrowed down to a few options, go take some test-rides to find the bike that
suits you.
