Deciding on a Bike?

Mountain, Road, Cross, or Hybrid?

When selecting a new bicycle, the most important question to ask yourself is what kind of bike should I get?

The answer to this question is going to be a function of what type of riding you plan to do, your experience, where you plan to ride and your price range. With a bit of education, you can select a bike that will suit your needs and last for years.   When asking "What type of bike is right for me?"  a beginning rider may ask the difference between a road bike and a mountain bike.  Meanwhile a more advanced rider may want to know the difference between compact and traditional geometries, or what frame material is best (aluminum steel, carbon, etc).  It is important to us that you find a bike that will hold up through the riding that you intend to do and will be comfortable. 

 Ride with Power and Ease

The most important aspect of selecting a new bike is finding the right fit: Determine your inseam, get the right frame size, determine your proper saddle height-determine your proper toptube and stem length, what size handlebars will suit you best, what length cranks will fit best,

Sound Complicated?

Then leave all that to US!

If you have any questions regarding what type of bike will be best for your riding style, ability, and goals please give us a call-we will walk you through these decisions and get you on or off road to your cycling experience.
