Choosing the right bike can be quite the task. With all the options out there it can seem quite daunting. Aero, all around, tri, road, mtb, there are just so many different bikes to choose from. How then can one know what the right bike is for them?
In the shop, we always ask several important questions to help figure out which bike is best. These same questions can help you narrow down and choose which is the right bike for you.
- What do you intend to use the bike for?
- What are your favorite aspects of riding, i.e. climbs, flats, long distance?
- What are your priorities in bike traits, i.e. fast, comfortable, light.
- What is your budget?
- What do your friends ride?
