The best and lightest urban/commuter/hybrid bike under $1000
2014年1月2日 · What do you think would be the best the best and lightest urban/commuter/hybrid bike under $1000 - $1500? I currently use Trek Allant and like everything about it except for weight. So, I want a more expensive, lighter bike that would still allow for upright position. My research led me to * Specialized Sirrus Comp, * Cannondale Quick SL

For a comfortable commuter bike, that Schwinn might not be a bad option if you're tall enough for it and you can get the seller to forego shipping/packaging charges. I wouldn't anticipate a bidding war for it, so it could be a lot cheaper than the Trek or Cannondale bikes you mentioned.

2024年12月18日 · Classic & Vintage - Slightly Crazy Winter Project Idea - Hi folks, During the later 70s I built a six speed commuter bike using an SA three speed hub with two sprockets. It worked well for my environment at the time, but I was in the relatively flat Silicon Valley and considerably younger. I currently live in Salem,

2025年1月7日 · Advocacy & Safety - eBike boost gone bad. - Here’s one I hadn’t seen nor heard of before. I was returning home from my pool workout, cruising through the neighborhood on my commuter bike.

Pretty cool. But, that might be overkill for a commuter bike but it is an option. Being in Minne-flat-opolis a single speed was plenty for me for year but now I run a 1x8 Afline IGH year round on my commuter as my old knee joints prefer a few gear options.
Sekai 4000 for my commute - Bike Forums
That bike is a solid deal at $250. It has good paint, a fine frame, and good parts. The only question is tire size. The OP might be better off with a bike that can take a little fatter tire and fenders. Hard to tell what size tires this bike can take from the pics but a 32c tire and fenders might be a stretch.

The Portage had 650b wheels (making this seemingly larger-than-25" bike clearly a 25"), and three pairs of water bottle bosses to the Alyeska's two.

Any GT All Terra fans? - Bike Forums
2024年12月8日 · I've always been intrigued by those GT frames with the top tube-attached seat stays. I almost bought an aluminum-framed GT road bike several years ago except that it had a crack at the seat post clamp. I'm thinking about building up a commuter-gravel bike and wondering if an All Terra would be a good bike to start with.
