HYBRID BIKE

Do you like a nice, easy ride? If you don't like rugged trails and you're not into racing, then this lightweight bike is perfect for you. You'll get a smoother ride for you guys out there who aren't serious bike riders. A hybrid is a combination of a mountain bike and a road bike. It was made for rough bike paths and for light offroad riding.

FRAME
The frame is made of lightweight steel and aluminum. It was made for comfortable upright riding.
GEARS
The hybrid has a fair amount of gears, because it is a combination. It has no ultra low gears like the mountain bike because you are not supposed to ride it on heavy, rugged terrain.
TIRES

The hybrid has fairly big tires, bigger than most mountain bikes. The tires are pumped as much as they can and are definitely high pressure.

BRAKES

The brakes on this bike are very sensitive and efficient. You can stop all of a sudden and not skid very much.

WHEELS

The wheels on hybrids are thick. They are like mountain bike wheels, yet light, like a road bike.

HANDLEBARS

The handlebars on hybrids are very upright which is very similar to the frame. The handlebars also have great traction and grip.
