Many do not wonder about how to choose a bike for a girl, believing that this vehicle is suitable for everyone, regardless of gender. But there is a difference between a male and a female bike : it lies in some design features.
Cheap bikes for different purposes
Every day, cycling enthusiasts sit on their two-wheeled friend and take a short trip. A bicycle is a transport that is not afraid of traffic jams, and an excellent option for those who do not want to go down the subway. But, buying it, you need to consider not only the driving style, but also the gender of the owner. You can ride a bike starting from 2 years old! 12 and 16-inch models will already be considered teenage. Bicycles for adults are already divided not only by wheel diameter, but also by riding style and destination (mountain, hybrid, etc.). Based on the fact that the average cyclist most often rides around the city, he gets either a mountain bike model (they are little suitable for urban driving, but are modified), or a hybrid (the same model as in the first case, but its wheels are large and thin). The latest models have a good rollback and good speed characteristics. With these parameters, you should start any selection of cycling if you do not know how to choose a bike. For the girl, they will differ in addition with a lower frame.
How to remake a mountain bike for the conditions of the city?
This bike is designed for off-road driving, but it can be changed. Firstly, for city driving you need another rubber. A deep tread will hold you back and you will not have a reel. A hybrid model is more suitable for the city. What is remarkable about such bicycles? The diameter of their wheels is 28 inches (this is the largest wheel for a bicycle), their smooth rubber does not allow them to cling to bumps in the road, and they also have a convenient classic frame. So, with the type of bike, everything is clear. But before you choose a bike for a girl, you should pick up other details.
Each person - an individual bike!
A specific model is selected according to the growth of its future owner. Stand with your bike frame between your legs. The distance between the frame and you should be 5 - 10 centimeters. The next step is to fit the bike. Sit on it, put your feet on the pedal. The foot in the lower position of the pedal should be slightly bent. The steering wheel is adjustable in angle, for a more comfortable ride, you can raise it or, conversely, lower it.
And a few more recommendations ...
Remember that the bike is picked up by the frame. Best if it is made of aluminum. It will be possible to buy a bicycle frame later and heavier, but when its weight increases, your vehicle will be more difficult to carry or move. Then inspect the brakes. If you are going to ride on dirt, off-road, choose a disc brake. If your routes lie within the city, the Wi-break brake system is enough. And, of course, rubber. Smooth tires are needed to drive on asphalt. Please note that all bikes are sold without wings, but can be purchased separately. The saddle, if desired, can also be changed. Before choosing a bike (for a girl or any other person), remember that a high-quality mountain bike will cost from 15,000 rubles. Cheaper models are equipped with brake systems and low-quality speed switches.
