What’s the difference between a city bike and a road bike?
Tires are a simple but visible difference. Comfort and cruiser bikes usually have a 26-inch tire standard commonly found on mountain bikes. Hybrid and city bikes usually (but not always) use the Road bike’s 700c tire standard. These are lighter to roll more easily on pavement for easy acceleration and climbing.
Can you bike to Key Biscayne?
Although Key Biscayne is known for its underwater marvels, there’s plenty to see on land, too, and bicycling is a perfect way to explore. The gem of the island for bicyclists is the nearly 9-mile Rickenbacker Trail, which stretches the length of Key Biscayne.
How do I find a group ride?
Check out Instagram and click on locations you’re already riding to see who else is riding there. Search for Facebook pages or groups in your area as well—often, there are at least one or two dedicated cycling pages for most towns, and you can make plans or jump in on group rides that way.
Is Citi bike only in NYC?
Citi Bike is New York City’s bike share system, and the largest in the nation. Citi Bike is available for use 24 hours/day, 7 days/week, 365 days/year, and riders have access to thousands of bikes at hundreds of stations across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and Jersey City.
What are urban bikes good for?
Urban bikes were created to conquer metro areas that typically are ridden at slower speeds, across sealed road surfaces and mostly flat terrain, and the gearing of the urban bike reflects this. The Indie we are using as an example has an 8-speed drivetrain with the gears located internally within the rear hub.
Are city bikes and hybrid bikes the same?
City and hybrid bikes are different but they overlap in use. City bikes have a more upright and comfortable riding position, wider tires, and often heavier but more durable parts. Hybrids have a more forward-leaning and athletic riding position like a mountain bike, but lighter frames and parts like a road bike.
