Hybrid Bikes

Hybrid bikes are sometimes referred to as city bikes, and use the efficient wheels of a road bike with a much more upright riding position, easier gearing, suspension, and sturdier frames. The result is an easy-riding, comfortable, but efficient bicycle that is perfect for recreational riding around the neighborhood, the bike trail, or the metropark. These bikes are some of our most popular models, and make great commuters, grocery-getters, or just plain fun bikes. They are also good for the occasional long ride.
