Im confused What to buy hybrid or onroad i have 350 dollars limit
-
is a hybrid the best option for college campus
-
Take note of the gearing, the crankset and cassette ratios if there will be steep hills, also disc brakes?
-
Is a hybrid luggish (not compared to road bikes)? I mean, could they maintain, say 15mph on a flat smooth rad without too much effort, or would you end up with sore legs and catching your breath trying to do that?

Im picking up my Fuji Absolute 1.4 today.
-
Do people bring a hybrid to skate parks?
-
They make great touring bikes I reccomend the Felt QX90

for years i've been riding a mb until i got myself this cannondale quick and i don't look back. too many people like me have had mbs for commuting and weekends ride in town without realizing how practical, quick and nimble a hybrid bike can be, and more or less for the same price. good quality hybrid bikes are wonderful.

@prdanpr1982 Except that hybrids usually have larger, lighter, thinner wheels (700c), narrower tires than you can put on a mountain bike, and usually weigh around 10 lbs less. Many also don't have front suspension, so there aren't energy losses there. But hybrids can range towards either road or mountain ends of the spectrum.

@kingkeato crosstrail specialized

why did someone say hybrids don't use suspension? is that a "purist" thing or what is he about? suspension is just another feature to take into account on your hybrid, it can be useful or a piece of added junk at the front of your bike. it's your choice. my specialized is not expensive, has front suspension, i drive it everywhere and i can honestly say the suspension works just fine as long as you don't misuse it

@niklima89 that guy is right bro.. pure hybrid bike it's a MTB with 700c wheel set and go with suspension too.. and i think ur bike its not a hybird.. but its called a flatt bar road bike.. depend on manny people arround is it called hybrid or road flatt bar...

-
@Tayrte Better go used...
-
I need a really good Hybrid bike, Price is not really an issue for me so can you please tell me some good Hybrid bikes to look at?
-
Does anyone know a good hybrid bike that has a maximum price of $100? I have a budget of $100?
-
Hybrids also tend to get better mileage.
-
@ibbotson22 Trust me you'll have difficulty cheating with the pavements on a road bike lol! I am anyway. But I kerb hopped for years on tourers and hybrids. Just be clever about it and don't barge in. I hate new, big kerbs...

I got a hybrid bike a few days ago and love it . I used to have mountain bikes but I never went off road so with a hybrid i feel the difference of having thinner wheels as I seem to go faster now . I also like how it looks like a mountain bike ,, but not so keen on the no suspension because I cant jump off the kerb onto the roads now .

@vincentf81 thats how it works ,when I was younger I had the same financial issues I dont know what it is but a lot of times I would be riding and just say wow this feels good with the sirrus it just felt nice. I would say buy from ebay or Gumtree if in the Uk plenty of good bikes being sold I bought the Trek 7.5fx from ebay and fixed it up with upgrades and still didnt cost me more than a standard bike would have new.
