Correctly to choose the bicycle, it is necessary to decide on the purposes and type of the bicycle first of all. It is also necessary to consider quality of model: frame durability, quality of the additional equipment. At last, it is necessary to pick up the bicycle for growth. It is important to estimate the weight and design of the chosen model.
Instruction
1. In spite of the fact that the design at all bicycles almost identical, types of this type of transport exists the set that forces beginners to become puzzled. There are mountain and highway bicycles, folding models, walking and road, hybrid and two-suspended and also cruisers and hardteyla. Decide on for what you need the bicycle. If you decided to be engaged in cycle tourism and to go on long distances on various area, it is the best of all to choose the cycle hybrid is the bicycle which can move with identical ease on different roads. It is suitable both for the highway, and for soil, and for the cross-country terrain.
2. For driving on the track pay attention on shosseynik, they are suitable only for flat roads and badly move on soil or hummocks, they are distinguished by the rigid fork and narrow tires. Mountain bicycles – the complete antithesis: thick tires, very strong wheels, good shock-absorbers on the fork. It is convenient to move to them on the cross-country terrain. The road bicycle which can't gather big speeds will be suitable for walks on the city and parks, but perfectly goes in different conditions.
3. The size of the bicycle is very important, at incorrectly picked up size it will be inconvenient to go, it can lead to dorsodynias or stretchings, and uncomfortable situation will quickly force to refuse walks. When choosing the bicycle of the necessary size get up so that legs were on different sides from the frame. Heels have to lean on the earth – if the frame is so highly that you can't put foot on the earth completely, it is too big bicycle. Jump on heels – if you at the same time touch the top pipe, then pick up the size even less. Ideally for the road bicycle if height of the frame is 4 cm lower than crotch height, and at mountain this difference has to make 10 cm. It is also important to estimate length of the top pipe which depends on length of the case and hands.
4. Choosing bicycle model, you remember that aluminum frames – they lungs are considered as the best, provide designs fast driving, but aluminum rather rigid and badly constrains vibration from driving. Such frame needs to be chosen for the bicycle with the depreciation fork. On aluminum frames the producer usually provides the long guarantee. Steel frames heavy, do the bicycle slow, but also such models cost cheaper.
5. The price of the bicycle depends not only on quality of the frame, but also on quality of "hinge plate", the suspended equipment. The best producers of bicycles use only the hinged equipment of Shimano and Sram, it is undesirable to take models with other equipment.
6. If you are going to ride in the winter, choose model with disk brakes, they work in cold season more effectively. You don't look at appearance of the bicycle, especially if it costs not much. If your budget is limited, it is better to buy simple model with the good frame without additional functions and frills as all of them will work badly and will break soon. And over time if desired on the bicycle it is possible to buy the new good pendant, to establish the better fork with absorption.
