Fat Loss Tips.

Posts Tagged ‘Road’

I am a regular cyclist, but as a road to go, too. However, my full suspension so the drama is too much for the pavement and even my Hardtail is too heavy for efficient road travel. I want something lighter and more responsive. The problem is that I do not want nice “feel” for road bikes. I saw that the way (my favorite) was a “fitness” bikes and “urban” bike and I wonder if anyone can tell me what are the advantages and disadvantages of choosing a fitness or urban bike on a road bike? THANKS! Just to add a fitness bike is not a stationary bike. This is the actual style of bike as a city, road, mountain, triathlon, etc. I just hope someone has some information that may be better for me. Thanks to all who can help you!

I just purchased a pretty cheap bike and I’m slowly going to upgrade the main components: derailleur’s. Fork, cranks etc. Etc.
The question is: does a casual fitness rider like me really going to need let’s say… Shimano 105, Ultegra, Dura-ace components; or is there something more appropriate? Mainly less expensive T.T?
Thanks everyone

I am a regular mountain biker, but like to road-ride, too. However, my full-suspension is way too much drama for the pavement and even my hardtail is too heavy for efficient road travel. I want something lighter and better suited. The problem is, I am not super fond of the “feel” of road bikes. I saw that Trek (my fave) had “fitness” bikes and “urban” bikes and I am wondering if anyone can tell me what are the advantages/disadvantages to choosing a fitness or urban bike over a road bike?
THANKS!
