I’m enjoying the bike so far wwwyoutubecom/post/UgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA My only real complaints are the brakes and the pedals I feel like a bike designed for bigger people should have much larger pedals and more heavy duty brakes I’ve only gotten two really good rides out of it, minimal downhill action, and the brakes feel like they’re already going out A larger person has more momentum, so I think this wasn’t thought through very well Also, I wear size 13-14 wide shoes My feet cramp up on these pedals that are clearly made for smaller feet Since I’m not a pro rider (and I don’t think many are who purchase this bike) I don’t think that the straps on the pedal are necessary at all None of this takes away from the enjoyment I get from riding, however I’ll just head to a bike shop to improve on a few things Comment from : doug goff |

Regarding cumuttingI'll say it in three wordsmudguards mudguardsMUDGUARDS!! Comment from : Bicycle camping lreland |

Very much disagree on wider tyres being better Thinner tyres have much less rolling resistance, so the bike will be more efficient, making the cycle easier and quicker Most people cycle to work entirely on roads and paved paths, so negotiating gravel and cobblestones is quite low on the list of prioritiesbrbrThey don't need to be road-bike skinny, but I've always advised against mountain bike-width tyres for a commuting bike Comment from : Duckbilled Walrus |

Got a hardtail mtb, it's brilliant and I've been using it for commuting about 8 miles each way a day half city half barely lit bypasses, gonna be taking advantage of the cycle to work scheme and I'm certain and rigid gravel bike will be good for this, obviously I could go road as its mainly road I ride on when commuting but that bit every tyre width and purely looks of a gravel bike has sold me Comment from : Drew Street |

My trek 920 has served me well for past 2 years Disc brakes, Drop bars, racks front and back, 4 bottle cage holders, 29inch wheels and loads more Seriously worth checking out if your looking for something to carry luggage and kids, as you do Comment from : Wyvern Lambi |

Abaut categories and confusion I had exchanged my old Caprinae vintage MTB which I use since my childhood (unsaveably overused in the last 20+year) to a Riverside 500 Touring bike or not I was devestated It was a good lesson for my how much I don't need comfort and speed (I can easy go up to 30 km/h and keep it the flat plane) Now I search for a "swiss knife/jack off all trade Mountain bike" Please don't rush it like I do Ask around and try to rent first that kind bike I really regret I give away that bike I'm using áll terrain touringbrbrHope it helped Comment from : Lovász Kálmán |

If you need special attire for a bike, it isn't a commuter bike Alu frames and disc brakes also are a pain for an every day use bike Drum brakes are vastly superior and steel frames last up to 3 times longer than alu Comment from : Diggnuts |

I've used a hybrid for commuting for the last few years, but now that the pandemic has killed my commute, I'm going on a lot more 30-50 mile jaunts and have been looking to upgradeI'll likely keep my studded tires on the hybrid for winter biking (snow and ice are the norm here for six months of the year) and add either a gravel or road bike for the warmer weather Comment from : Aaron Propes |

Better bike for commuting? The one I have now! Lemond 2006 Robust, reliabe, beauty, light and fast Comment from : Hugo Carlos |
|
A cheap decathlon road bike with a good set of continental 4 Seasons tyres on it That's the best, because it will do everything you need it to do, it's cheap, robust and with the tyres safe in almost any weather conditions Also because it's a cheaper bike it's less likely to be a target of bike theft Buy a fancy bike and chain it up in a big city and you are likely to never see it again Comment from : Reginald Scot |
|
what about single speeds and fixie bikes?bralthough by modern standards they are more niche they offer little hassle and little to no maintenance making them perfect for those who are willing to deal with no having gears Comment from : Kuma_Score |

Hello, Thank you for the ongoing support for all Cycling endeavour :), Incredibly after having to Cycle for the past 31 Years due to health, I have recently purchased a New Bike that is too small, My Bike is an E-bike a 2019 Cube Touring Hybrid Easy Entry, that I am very fond of and am very much in awe of the sublime adventure it offers I am 5’115 and have a 50cm (Small Medium) and find that my arms are extended/ almost stretched to the handle bars which I have been raised with an Ergotec high charisma Stem, but my bottom is being pushed off the back of the seat and I’m unsure if a bigger bike is showing dimensions that will improve this area? Keep up the Good Work Comment from : Joe Michael Egan |
