03.06.2020

In our time it is very difficult to imagine the life of a modern person without sports. It can be strength training, dance, yoga, football, volleyball, wrestling, gymnastics, and the list goes on and on. But there is no point in choosing your sport based on purely pragmatic considerations. After all, the main criterion that a person should be guided by in his choice is pleasure from the process. Since our Center is engaged in the preparation of a sports reserve for cycling, we want to tell you about the useful tips of bicycles for fans of this sport.

The most important cycling equipment is of course the bicycle. But before buying, it is important to consider some nuances, such as riding style (city or off-road), budget, your growth and weight (the size of the bike frame depends on this).

The first and most important is the habitat of your iron horse, that is, where will you ride it? If you want one bike for all occasions, then you can safely go shopping for a mountain bike. Despite the name, these bikes are good not only in the mountains, they also allow you to ride on dirt roads and on asphalt roads. For comfortable use, it is better to give preference to wide tires (as a rule, from 2 ") and the correct selection of the wheel diameter (27.5" - for those whose height does not exceed 175 cm. 29 "- for all others, from 175 and above) . If you need a bike for everyday household needs, such as commuting to work, shopping for groceries, then you should choose a city bike with road tires, with a trunk and / or basket, fenders and a footrest. To use such a city bike you do not need special equipment - you can ride in trousers, jeans, business suit, dress without risking getting dirty or damaging it.There are also no strict requirements for shoes, wide pedals make it possible to use any type of sole.And for those who like speed and constant, uniform cardio load, a road bike is the thing. This transport is able to give the owner maximum drive and ease of driving, significantly improve health, and also give the opportunity to visit a lot of interesting places. When buying your first road bike, it is best to use the services of qualified managers of a reliable and trusted bike shop. The disadvantages include the impossibility of installing the trunk and sensitivity to the road surface. For example, these bicycles are not suitable for riding on dirt paths. For such purposes, there are cross or hybrid bikes. On these cross-country bikes, it is easy to cover significant distances in a forest, park, square or field road, spending less energy than on a classic mountain bike. And fans of drive are advised to look towards BMX, street, dirt bikes, with which you can perform stunning stunts. Speed ​​is not important here, the main thing is how beautiful you are driving and how difficult are your tricks on bardyurs, benches and flower beds, parapets.

The next factor, which is one of the main factors when choosing a bike, is the purchase budget. We must admit the fact that quality bikes are not worth 3 kopecks. It is also important to consider - the higher the class of attachments, the less often it will be necessary to adjust and maintain.

And the last question is the size of the frames. After all, we have different body proportions, so we wear different sizes of clothes and move the chair in the car in different ways. The bike is also inextricably linked to our body, which means it must also be the right size. To make it clear, we leave the table where the approximate data for the correct selection of the bike are indicated. 

If you have finished reading this article, then now you understand the main purposes of bicycles and are already able to successfully and meaningfully buy a bicycle for yourself. Next time we will write where in the capital you can buy two-wheeled vehicles. See you later!
