If you’ll stay on
pavement and ride
primarily for exercise,
a c bike or fitness bike is
a good choice. A comfort or
cruiser bike is better for short,
casual rides with family. If you’ll
bike mostly for commuting, a city
bike might be best; think about electric
pedal-assist models as well. If you want a
bike for commuting and fitness, and think you
might ride on both pavement and natural-surface
trails, a versatile gravel bike is probably the right fit.
f you’ll ride entirely off-road, a sturdy mountain bike
is the best choice. Sometimes, more than one category
of bike might be appropriate. Once you’ve narrowed things
down to a couple of styles, you can zero in on specific candidates.
