Mountain Bikes Regarded as Perfect Hill Heroes

2014-04-27T10:10:00.000-07:00

Mountain bikes [photo credit: self trading] are especially dedicated for rough and rugged terrains. These extra traction and shock absorbing mountain bicycles are equipped with fat knobby tires. Nevertheless, a full front and rear suspension is becoming quite an ordinary factor these days with bikes meant for mountain rides. A number of bikes of this particular variety are fitted with bar ends on the handlebars, but with current trends the application of handlebars and extensions are becoming less and less well-liked.

Mountain bicycles are designed both 26 and 29 inches wheels. The larger wheels of this bike type have better rolling capacities over rocks and boulders. Furthermore, wheels, which are larger in diameter, also bring about an enhancement in rotational weight giving way to stable acceleration. Mountain bicycles are regarded as kings on rugged roads. Based on suspension, mountain bicycles are generally graded into four different kinds:

Bikes with Dual or Full Suspension - These bikes have front suspension fork and rear suspension with a rear shock and linkage that is ready to make the rear wheels move on pivots.

Hardtail Bikes - These bikes have frames with no rear suspension and they are frequently supplied with front suspension forks.

Soft Tail Bikes - These bikes have frames with small amount of rear suspension. The bikes are activated by flex of the frame rather than the pivots.

Fully Rigid Bikes - These bikes have a sub-type of hardtail together with rigid fork system.

The Different Types of Mountain Bicycles

The Cross-Country Mountain Bike – This bike variety has small amount of suspension on the front or on the rear. These bicycles are moderately light since they are constructed with lightweight materials both in frame construction and in components. Some XC bike varieties of this particular type are without any suspension. They make use of rigid front fork that helps in saving weight. Here, the skill of the rider to pass through rough terrains is more essential.

Freeride Mountain Bike – These are very close to enduro bikes and emphasize more on weight and enhanced suspension. These bikes have plenty suspension and they are frequently constructed with heavier materials. Freeride bikes are totally versatile and they are fantastic for uphill travel. The frame angles of such bikes are typically steeper in comparison to downhill bikes. Most freeride bikes are 30 to 45 pounds in weight.

Trials Mountain Bike – These are trial specific bikes. Most of these bikes are without any suspension. The contemporary trial bikes come without seats as most of the time the rider is out of the saddle. This bike is mostly lighter than other mountain bicycles and it weighs between 15 to 25 pounds. The lightweight makes it easier for the biker to maneuver the bike.

Single-Speed Mountain Bike – This is a sort of mountain bike with one set gear ratio. The ratio of the gear depends on the kind of terrain the bike crosses, the skill and strength of the bike rider and the size of the bike too. A single-speed bike is totally rigid having tough steel frames. If you desire to ride a single-speed bicycle on mild to moderate cross-country terrains you have to be strong and active.

North Shore Mountain Bike - North shore mountain bike is authentically constructed for rough and rugged land surfaces. A rider of this particular bike type has to exhibit lots of skill and balance while riding the bike. This bike is a magnificent combination of freeride and downhill bikes.

The other mountain bike varieties consist of Enduro Mountain Bike, Downhill Mountain Bike and Dirt Jumping Bike.

The majority of modern bikes meant for mountains have lighter and stronger frames with innovative design and form. The geometry of these bikes encourages vigorous riding over some obstacles like logs, rocks, wooden bridges and manually fabricated ramps. In the front, the bikes have three gears and it has 7, 8, 9, or 10 gears at the rear wheel position.

A number of notable companies who have introduced the latest models of mountain bicycles include Fox, Manitou and Rock Shox together with other significant bike manufacturers. It is quite likely for you to make mistakes while riding a mountain bike. The mishaps generally take place due to equipment failure or misjudgment on the part of the rider. Thus, a number of companies have come forward with protective gears referred to as armors to give full protection from injuries. A number of essential upper body protectors for riders include spine protector, full-face helmets and backpack hydration system.

It is quite a well-known fact that mountain bicycles are appropriately designed following the present trend and demand. Mountain bikes are in fact the dream of every determined and efficient mountain biker.

Knowing Three Main Types of Bikes

2014-04-25T00:02:00.002-07:00

If you are new to cycling, the first thing you may notice is just how many different types of bikes are available these days. Selecting the right bike can be downright daunting, but it doesn't have to be. Let's try to clear things up. No one bike can do everything. The first thing you need to think about is how you want to use the bike. Are you going to be using it mostly on the road? Do you want to take it off-road? Unless you're seeking for a trick bike, beach cruiser, or other specialty type bike, there are really three major types of bikes: road bikes, mountain bikes and hybrid bikes.

Road Bike – Road bikes are made of lightweight materials. A number of high-end road bikes weigh as little as 15 lbs. They have very narrow tires that are filled with so much air they are nearly rock solid. Narrow, hard tires give for very low rolling resistance, but little to no shock absorption to soften the ride. The handlebars are situated so that you maintain a very aerodynamic position. Curved handlebars give you multiple options for hand positioning. When you take longer trips it's nice to be able to move your hands around to different positions to keep from going numb. Also, bear in mind that carbon bars and forks, saddles, rims and tires can help with the vibration, as well as bar tape. These are nice if you plan on doing a lot of riding. A road bike is suitable for fitness riding, day touring and competitions. It is not suitable for off-road riding. [image credit: bicycle design]

Mountain Bike – Mountain bikes come in two types: hard tail and full-suspension. Hard tail mountain bikes have only a front suspension fork with typically 2" to 4" of travel that absorbs the bumps while riding (your legs do the work in the back). Full-suspension mountain bikes also have a front suspension fork and add a rear suspension system as well. Since aerodynamics isn’t quite as important as a road bike the riding position is more upright. The tires are knobby, wider than a road bike and thicker. They provide for better grip and stability on all kinds of surfaces and provide a little more cushion. Mountain bikes tend to weigh more like 25 to 35 lbs. because they are built to handle much more abuse than a road bike. Mountain bikes are ideal for riding cross country, on single track trails, dirt roads, and climbing and descending mountain trails.

Hybrid Bike – A hybrid bike provides the efficiency of a road bike and the comfortable riding position of a mountain bike. The tires are almost as narrow as a road bike and a little thicker to provide for a slightly more comfortable ride by absorbing small bumps. Hybrid bikes can also be built tough to handle light trails and cross country rides, so they are a little heavier than road bikes. Hybrid bikes generally don't have a front shock as mountain bikes do, so they're not meant to handle a very long off-road ride. On trails it will be bumpier, but that's the way it used to be done before shocks came on the scene. The hybrid bike is for you if:

You can only afford one bike and like to road bike and do a little mountain biking, or
You like to road bike but don't like leaning over so far and want a little softer ride, or
You're a commuter and like the speed of a road bike but want to sit up a little higher to see traffic

Of course, there are certainly many more choices out there than just road, mountain and hybrid bikes. Bicycle manufacturers are doing everything they can to differentiate and provide niche products but these represent the largest share of the bikes available today. Some manufacturer actually custom build and tune the bike specifically for you.

If you want to strictly ride on roads and don't mind the bent over position, choose a road bike. If you want to ride cross country, on single-track mountain trails and other dirt roads extensively, choose a mountain bike. If you need something that can be a little bit of both, or you're a commuter that likes riding in a more upright, more comfortable position, choose a hybrid bike.

Tips on Purchasing a Bicyle for Women

2014-04-24T08:34:00.001-07:00

Purchasing a bicycle can be a challenge! This is mainly the case for women as the obvious physical differences between women and men can make it hard for women to find the ideal bike for them or the right fit in a male dominated bike world.

Purchasing a women's bike is absolutely not as straightforward as purchasing a men's bike. This is largely since bike manufacturers have only recently woken up to the fact that men are not the only people who cycle. Below is the following guide of what to look for in a woman's bike and useful pointers on women's bike sizing. We hope it's helpful.

Get Specific - Despite the fact that a lot of women ride smaller versions of men's bikes the obvious (and not so obvious) physical differences between women and men mean that men's bike frames tend to be unsuitable for women. As a result, when you are buying a bike there are many advantages in looking at women-specific bikes.

Step through bikes were the original bikes designed for women back in the last century. However, now there are frames and bikes designed for women who want road bikes, mountain bikes, Dutch bikes or Mixte hybrid bikes.

Whatever style of women's bike you want, getting the right women's bike size and adjusting it to fit your physique is critical to the comfort and handling of the bike.

Basic Physiology and Impact on Women's Bikes

Bear with us, as we know we all come in different shapes and sizes but women generally have shorter upper bodies than men, with a shorter torso and shorter arms. Conversely, women have longer femurs (thigh bones) and longer legs than a man of the same height as well as wider hips. Women's hands and feet are also generally smaller than men's, while their shoulders are narrower.

One simple example of how this plays into comfort for a woman riding a bike is the saddle. Wider hips mean bigger sit bones. This requires a wider saddle on a women's bike than typically supplied on a man's bike. An illustration of this is the saddle sizes offered by Specialized. They tend to offer saddles in two sizes for men and women. Men get saddles of 130mm and 143mm. Women's saddles are 155mm and 175mm. (Of course, saddles can be easily changed, so, if you prefer to stick with your men's bike you may want to consider replacing the saddle).

Step-Through Frame Bikes/Hybrids

Bike fitting is less of an issue for step-through frame bikes because there is either no top tube or, in the case of a Mixte frame, the tube is heavily slanted. As the riding position on these bikes is upright the best fit is determined by the reach to the handlebars. The head tube on a step through frame tends to be quite long so to maintain an upright riding position.

When it comes to Mixte frames, the typical frame has road bike geometry. Road bike geometry on such frames can present a problem like toe overlap making tight turns trickier but are suitable for shorter women. A touring Mixte with its larger wheel base can overcome this problem, while on road bike Mixte frames look for a bike that has smaller 650 size wheels.

Road Bikes

A standard unisex road bike is built to fit a man. It may, in some circumstances, actually fit a woman well but generally it's not ideal. For example, the extended top tube length of unisex bikes means that women generally have to stretch to reach the handlebars. In addition, cranks tend to be too long and handlebars too wide.

As bike manufacturers have begun to recognize the demand for women's bikes they have started to build bikes with a geometry tailored to the female physique. A women's bike tends to have a more pronounced sloping top tube as well as being shorter in length across the top to give women a more comfortable and less extended reach to the handlebars.

However, shorter top tubes do present problems. On the smallest frames there is a risk of toe overlap (This is where your toe can hit the front wheel when you turn a bike at slow speeds), which no rider likes, according to Julian of UK specialist frame fitting company CycleFit. To deal with this, Julian tells us, manufacturers often steepen the seat tube to push the front wheel further away from the bottom bracket and create more clearance. [image credit: walmart]

When buying a road specific women's bike, it's necessary to pay attention to the seat tube angle. This should be around 70°-73° (whereas men's bikes tend to be 72°-75°). This will result in the saddle being positioned behind the bottom bracket in order to accommodate women's proportionally longer legs and to make sure the rider has an optimum knee over pedal position for efficient pedaling.

It is also important to ensure there is a long enough head tube on a short top tube bike so that the drop between saddle and handlebars is comfortable.

Other changes that can be made to create the perfect fit for a women's bike are: shorter cranks (manufacturers generally offer a range between 165mm - 175mm), narrower handlebars (c380mm - 460mm) and shorter brake levers. A shorter handlebar stem (c70mm - 130mm) can also aid reach on a standard or a women's bike.

Mountain Bikes

Fit issues encountered by women with mountain bikes are similar to those with a road bike setup. As a result of most bikes being designed with the male market in mind it is often necessary for the relevant contact points to be adjusted to fit a woman's physical differences.

The advice provided above for a road specific women's bike is relevant here. A wider saddle can be fitted, slimmer handlebar grips put on and narrower handlebars used.

The key feature of a specifically built women's mountain bike frame is a shorter top tube. Some bike manufacturers have designed curved top tubes on their bikes to aid stand over height for women. As for any rider the springs on any part of the suspension for a mountain bike will need to be adjusted to take account of the weight of the rider.

Women's Bike Sizing

Our own bike frame size guide is simple to use and suggests bike frame sizes based upon your height. It is a good starting point if you are looking for help with women's bike sizing. You need to get a measuring tape and calculator to hand if you want to get more sophisticated with bike sizing.

For an accurate women's bike sizing measurement on a road bike, get your inseam leg measurement in centimeters and multiply it by 0.67. This will give you a recommended frame size in centimeters.

For an accurate women's bike sizing measurement on a mountain bike convert the inseam measurement from centimeters to inches and multiply by 0.67. This gives your frame size in inches.

Other Things to Note:

Women's road bike sizes generally run a few sizes smaller than men's bikes, accommodating cyclists between 4'10 to 5'10 inches in height. Road frames range from 42cm to 57cm. When it comes to choosing the correct frame size for women's bike sizing, whether you choose a male bike or women's specific design, it's always good to do the stand over test. Make sure there is at least a 1 inch clearance from your crotch over the top tube.

Women's mountain bike frames range from 13 to 19 inches. When doing a stand over test, you should have 3 to 4 inches clearance over a top tube.

Step through frames are typically measured in inches as opposed to centimeters with sizes going up from 17 to 22 inches typically. A smaller frame isn't always necessary though with women's bike sizing on a step through frame. As a general guide, a 17'5 inch frame will fit a lady with a 24'5-28'5 inch inside leg measurement, a 20 inch frame will fit a lady with a 27-31'5 inch inside leg measurement and a 22 inch frame will fit a lady with a 30'5-38 inch inside leg measurement.

New Design Bicycle- Engined

2010-05-05T23:37:00.001-07:00

If you wanted to build a custom bike for a long time.You should have couple of rules. It has to be simple. It has to be street legal. It has to be cheap. and the most important- it has to be COOL! (pretty easy with a board track racer!). First you have to do is specify the theme bikes that you will wake up later, you need took a while to figure out the first two rules- simple and street legal. If you have and came up with this idea for the first build (I *do* hope to eventually build something a lot more accurate, but for the first, simple, cheap, street legal).

This bike design have plan on hacking the top tube and back part of the XL350 frame off, use the headset, downtube, engine cradle, engine, and rear swingarm from the XL. The front will be a complete front end- shocks, hub, and disk brake- from a CB450 cause I have it laying around and cause it has disk brakes. The designer of this bike have plan on lacing 26" rims to the CB450 front hub and the XL350 back hub and welding new top tubes, seat tube, and seat stays to recreate the look. So if you are interested with this design,or you have a better idea. It all depends what you want.

If you are cyclist and just jump on your bike for some leisurely recreation or to get from place to place some good tennis or running shoes can be good cycling shoes. Any shoes that can give you a decent grip of the pedal can be used as cycling shoes. Try to avoid shoes that are not able to grip the pedal or ones that are so worn down that they won’t grip the pedal as well. If your cycling shoes can not grip the pedal your leg can slip off and cause an accident. One of the most important aspects in picking cycling shoes is make sure they have a stiff sole. A stiff sole of the shoe will allow for more power transfer than a soft soled shoe.If you are cyclist or a competition cyclist there are many different types of shoes on the market. Many of these types of cycling shoes can clip onto the pedal of the bike so as to ensure that your foot does not slip from the pedal. These types of clip-on shoes are best for road cycling as they give the best power transfer.As with almost any type of footwear, shoes that you use for cycling are going to offer options for closures. Some people really prefer laces, while professional cyclists feel more comfortable with Velcro closures or straps. The only thing you really need to keep in mind is how easy is it for you to get the cycling shoes you purchase on and off your feet.Visit a good cycling shop and have them help you pick out the right cycling shoes for you.

It is economical but it is heavy at 41.5 lb. If you like the comfort and handling of this recumbent bicycle but are put off by its weight first try for. This Recumbent bicycle comes with rugged, wider lower pressure tires which could be changed for a lighter faster pair but this will never be a fast bike. It's front shifting is inconsistent; some riders find it occasionally drops the chain when downshifting to the lowest front gear. Others have reported no such problem.
