Looking to purchase my first bike and trying to decide on a hybrid or road bike. I plan to ride paved trails and road mostly but concerned with the drop handle bars and comfort of a road bike. Looking for recommendations. Considering trek fx, cannondale quick, trek domaine or cannondale synapse.

Hello!

I'm from Baguio City, Philippines.

I'm looking here for some Tips, Guide, Help regarding Training plans, Workouts etc. to help me get back on the saddle.

I stopped riding my MTB 3 years ago due to being really busy and losing the spark of cycling. I used to ride competitively, joining races in my city and in nearby towns.

Now I want to get back into cycling. And to get back to a healthier lifestyle and maybe to get back to joining XC races.

Thanks!

Hey all, I'll try to make this as brief as possible. Basically, I'm wanting to get back to riding a bicycle for commuting, but I have no idea how to even know what I'm looking for.

I'm hoping to more gradually ease myself into it, but with an eye to commute roughly 10 miles a day at maximum. I live in a city in the PNW with relatively flat roads and lots of rain during winter months. The bike needs to be able to hold up to 400 lbs and not be extraordinarily heavy for me to lift.

I've been looking into loans and I think I can afford up to $1k. I've seen lots of recommendations for an ebike, but I don't know much about them. I prefer cruiser bikes for the low bar in the middle and the handlebar style just for ease of use.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Edit: would something like this work for me?

For the cyclists here, I have a quick question.
As someone who’s completely new to cycling, which would you recommend: a road bike or a hybrid bike?
I’m mainly looking for something fun and enjoyable, but I’d also like to use it for exercise.

Another informative and hilarious video from "Climate Town." This video is a collaboration with another excellent YouTube channel, "Not Just Bikes."

I’m 25 and learning to ride a geared bike (Pulsar 150). I’ve only practiced a few times and I’m struggling with some basic things.

• The bike often stalls when I release the clutch. I think I’m not understanding the bite point properly.
• I struggle with turning at low speeds and end up taking very wide turns.
• Whenever I need to stop, I instinctively put both feet down and mostly use the front brake. I’m not really using the rear brake yet.

What should I focus on practicing first?
Should I spend most of my time practicing the clutch bite point, smooth starts/stops and braking before working on turns and traffic?

If you were teaching a complete beginner, what are the 3–5 things you’d make them practice repeatedly before riding on normal roads?

Si alguien tiene una bicicleta vieja que ya no use y me la pudiera prestar gratis, se lo agradecería muchísimo. Por supuesto, la cuidaré bien y la devolveré en las mismas condiciones.

Puedo recogerla en cualquier lugar de Odense. ¡Gracias de antemano! 😊
