We buy bikes according to our own needs. If used for commuting, then suitable for lightweight bikes. If used for cycling, whether close or long distance, then suitable for mountain bikes. If it's a race, it's a road bike. Here we will introduce how to buy.
Shop by bike type
1.BMX
Mainly used for daily commuting, mainly to take the car, the car has a small volume, easy to carry and other characteristics. It can be put into the car for easy taking out, and the biggest difference with folding car is that the frame cannot be folded.
2.Station wagon
The main feature is the shelf design, best for long distance riding. Station wagons can carry a lot of things, and with equipment such as backpacks and front bags, riders can ride farther and more comfortably.
3.Mountain bike
The main points are single shock absorbers, double shock absorbers and no shock absorbers, and there is a fork before shock absorbers and after the distinction between the shock absorbers. Mountain bikes are the most comprehensive bikes that can cover any need for daily cycling.
4.Road car
It is mainly a racing car, characterized by its curved handlebars and narrow tires. Although the speed of the road bike is very fast, its comfort and handling are far inferior to that of the mountain bike due to the lack of shock absorbers.
Choose from accessories
The mountain bike is the most practical type of bike, which can be used for both short and long distance cycling. The price of mountain bike mainly depends on the price of accessories. We need to understand the types of accessories before we can choose a bike suitable for ourselves.
