Re: new bike advice.......I think if you've ridden a bike since you're a kid,
it's easy to get it back, only problem as one gets older the weight distribution is not the same I feel a difference this year after eating too much sweets during the winter, I justified that "I needed the extra insulation for winter, but it is so much harder as you get older to work it off."

Re: new bike advice.......upright handle bars or the drop handle bars?
Re: new bike advice.......both......lol......i can turn them up which i've done........i like my handlebars quite high.....
Fluffy
Re: new bike advice.......I don't think a bicycle comes with BOTH UPRIGHTS and DROP. The drop handlebars are what you see on all Road bicycles (very thin tires) and the uprights are the common handlebars that you see on Mountain bikes.
so which one is it?
