Find a Bike For Various Uses By Picking a Hybrid Option

Most people know that the popularity of cycling increased during lockdown as people wanted to find different ways of getting out about and completing their daily exercise options. But did you know that even more people are now cycling on a regular basis due to the cost of fuel and the cost-of-living crisis in general?

The good news, of course, is that cycling is a great form of exercise. And it doesn’t really matter what the weather is like providing you have appropriate clothing. The other good news is that there is now a great choice of hybrid bikes for flexible cycling, meaning that they are perfect for different types of usage.

You might, for example, want to use your bike for your commute to work or around town for shopping trips rather than using the car, but perhaps you also want to up the ante with increased speed and distance for cardiovascular fitness.

Hybrid bikes also combine the qualities of the best road and mountain bikes, making them quick and comfortable for commuting, carrying baggage, and getting around town. These lovely bikes provide a blend of lightweight speed with an upright stance, making cycling more comfortable and enjoyable.

As well as helping you keep fit and reducing your expenses, using a bike instead of a car has hugely positive environmental impacts, and we all have a role to play if we are to avoid this pending climate crisis.

Here are a few examples of hybrid bikes to showcase their flexibility:

A unisex bike that is at home in the city or country lanes, including 7 Shimano gears to cope with those challenging hills.

The style is retro with stylish “moustache” shaped handlebars, and a racey and agile feel.

This bike weighs just 12kg providing the perfect balance of speed and sturdiness.

Cannondale Treadwell 4

Cannondale is a stylish cruiser that can also be used as a commuter or training bike. In a bid to design a bike ideal for city riding, these lovely bikes broke many accepted routines.

Their painless pedals and perfect frame help shield your bike from dents and scratches. You can put your foot down at a stoplight without tripping, thanks to the upright position, step-through frame, and lower saddle.
