Cycling is a great way to take a break from the bustle of the city, have fun with friends, as well as healing spiritually and physically.
But the implementation of this idea can cause several problems, the main of which is to buy a suitable bicycle for a tourist campaign. If before that you rode only by amateur transport, you will have to find out the features of different types of professional models to choose the best tourist option.
Triathlon
Highways have a special design that maximizes the aerodynamic properties of transport. The steering wheel also has a special aerodynamic design, which allows you to lean forward while driving to minimize wind resistance against the body. The highway is more suitable for individual skiing, when the racer travels along the highway alone, and not in the total mass.
Road triathlon
This model has most of the advantages of regular bicycles: light frames, relatively narrow tires for effective movements on asphalt, vertical steering wheel. They are intended for people who want to ride on light and high -performance transport, but do not like a low steering wheel characteristic of road models. If you go to the cycling catalog on, you will see models on which you can install racks and wings necessary for suburban trips.
Mountains
Mountain models are ideal for skiing along forest paths and other off -road. They have flat or vertical steers and a very low gearbox for pedals. Most mountain bikes are equipped with a special type of shock absorbers. This type of tourist transport can have a front, rear or full (front and rear) suspension, and also be without suspension. You can find mountain -type children’s bicycles on the battery. Although real mountain bikes for traditional tourism are completely mechanical.
Hybrid
Hybrid models were originally conceived to combine the advantages of road and mountain options. They have large, soft seats and vertical rudders, which provide a convenient position with daily skiing in the surroundings of the city or bicycle paths. Hybrids move well along road roads, but not as easy and effective as road models. But in such transport you can easily move along the forest paths.
