	Road Bikes, range in style from old-fashioned uprights with wide tires to the sleekest new alloy frames and racing-style tires. They run in price from a few hundred dollars to several thousand, depending on the funds and features you're looking to find. Generally speaking, a good road bike combines the design for speed you would find in a racing bike with a more upright and sturdy frame built for endurance instead of short bursts of speed. The typical road bike has more gear combinations and fewer high-tech racing features than a racing bike. You'll find some excellent road bikes in sizes for men, women, and children -- at prices sure to fit your budget -- from our online merchant partners. Find a wide variety of Road Bikes through our Bikes And Biking web site!
	A classy and functional Mountain Bike adds to your outdoor lifestyle fun and extends your travel reach from the paved, flat streets of your hometown to the rugged peaks wherever your adventures take you! A good Mountain Bike or all-terrain bicycle is built to take years of rough use, the sort of "punishment" you dish out as you push yourself and your equipment to the limits just for the fun of outdoor, all-terrain cycling! Mountain biking as a sport first came into its own in the 1970s and bicycles have kept pace by adding (since the late 1990s) front and rear suspension and extremely rugged alloy frames and components. Our quality online merchant partners offer a wide selection of all-terrain Mountain Bikes to find every rider and every budget.
	Comfort & Cruiser Bikes stand out as an excellent choice for the casual bike rider or someone who wants a laid-back alternative to their motor vehicles for those short trips around the neighborhood or back and forth to the store. Comfort and cruiser bikes generally have completely upright frames, generally well-padded saddles, and balloon tires. Both types of bikes come with single-hub gears, although many of the best comfort bikes incorporate derailleurs and at least a 3-speed gear arrangement. Either model usually has standard hand brakes, although "vintage" comfort/cruiser bikes may come with old-fashioned coaster foot brakes.
	City Bikes. The term "city bike" is often used for bikes designed specifically for in-town riding. These commuter bicycles mostly feature 26-inch and 28-inch wheels and are made with a frame/wheel/saddle geometry that focuses on an upright riding posture. City Bikes' gears are usually in the 3 to 8 speed range, and many of these reliable bikes use low-maintenance internal hubs. They are designed and built to handle a wide range of terrain. Many City Bikes give you a choice between standard diamond frames or easy to mount step-through "U" frames.
	Folding Bikes are nearly as old as the original bicycle itself. Designed to be compacted into a small shape and size for convenient transport, bicycling history tells us that the French military took an interest in Folding Bike designs as early as the 1890s. In fact, the British developed a folding bike for parachutists in World War II, a bike which was widely used from 1939-45. (One of our online merchant partners, The Commuter Bike Store, offers a 27-speed Paratrooper Pro Folding Mountain Bike you might want to take a look at.) Modern folding bikes come in a variety of convenient and sturdy configurations and might be just what you're looking for to use for your daily work commute. You'll find convenient access to Folding Bikes right here at our Bikes And Biking website.
	A Hybrid Bike is a bicycle built for all-purpose riding and commuting on a variety of surfaces, ranging from paved roads to unpaved paths and trails. Hybrid bikes combine features of road bikes and mountain bikes, including "subcategories" of bicycles such as the city bike, cross bikes and commuter bikes. To generalize Hybrid Bike features, they often use the triple crank and handlebars from a mountain bike to give a more upright posture than road bikes. Hybrids foten have linear pull or disc brakes like mountain bikes, too. And they often use the larger wheel diameter of road bkes to increase speed -- but use a wider rim and tire for increased strength. Our excellent online merchant partners offer a wide variety of Hybrid Bikes and components to give you access to just what you're seeking in a hybrid!
	Cycling Casual Wear. Clothes for cycling range from light-weight rain gear to fullout winter clothes, with layers of inner wear and outer wear that can be quickly grabbed or just as quickly shed to match changing weather and terrain situations. Our online merchant partners offer a nice selection of jackets for men and women, jerseys, protective clothing, and caps and pants suitable for a casual day outdoors or a get together with friends at the end of a long day in the saddle. You'll find access to a wide range of casual wear for bicyclists of all sorts and sizes right here at our Bikes And Biking website.
	Bike Parts & Accessories. Looking for the perfect component or accessory? The Bikes And Biking website gives you access to a huge selection of excellent bicycle parts and biking accessories. From customized frames to tires and crank sets, to practical and useful bicycle racks and bicycle trailers, you'll find everything you need to maintain and upgrade your treasured bikes.
