Finding a bike that is really comfortable to ride can sometimes be difficult. What features should be considered when buying, she said in an interview with RT expert “VseInstrumenty.ru” Angelina Surkova.
According to the expert, the size of the bike should be chosen based on the height of the future owner. For example, for adults between 160 and 175 centimeters tall, 16 to 18 inch bikes are best suited. And with a growth of 175-190 centimeters, it is worth choosing a transport of 18-20 inches.
It is also important to understand for what purposes the purchase will be used most often. For example, mountain bikes tend to have big tires and suspension for cross-country riding. On-road vehicles typically have narrow tires and lightweight construction designed to ride on smooth roads. And hybrid bikes are suitable for both city riding and beyond.
The expert advises to pay attention to the materials of the frame. They also have their own advantages and disadvantages.
“Steel frames offer strength and reliability, but can be heavy. Aluminum frames are lightweight but less durable. Carbon frames are the lightest and stiffest, but also the most expensive,” Surkova explained.
