Think About This When Buying Bikes And Gear

By Yusuf Abdi


The huge tires, disc brakes, and big front shock make the Diamondback Overdrive 29'er Mountain Bike a real tough looking bike. The comfort of this ride is amazing! This 24-speed bike hard tail mountain bike has 29-inch wheels. The aluminum Overdrive hard tail frame means it will stand up to just about anything, even triathlon riding. Nonetheless, shifting gears is not as effortless as one should expect with the 8-speed trigger shifters.

Rocks and tough trails are nothing to the Diamondback Overdrive 29'er. It is reasonably priced, coming in at around $500. Does not come fully assembled, but it is easily completed. With a little tuning it will be ready to tackle the trails, parks, and streets.

Every biker understands that protection is a must for surviving, and the Giro Aeon Bike Helmet makes the perfect accessory for that. Just choose the correct size, make a few adjustments and this light weight helmet is the perfect fit. It has enough venting to make it really comfortable. The quality of workmanship that went into making it is evident, and the removable padding and straps are easy to clean, just throw them in the washer.

At $140, the Giro Aeon Road Bike Helmet may be a little pricier than other helmets, but you always get what you pay for. It is well worth the price to have quality protection when you never know what it coming around the next corner. Anyone living in heated climates that are notorious for high humidity will understand the importance of the ample venting of this light weight helmet. Some say it feels as if there is nothing on their head, and the sweat just evaporates away.

The Schwinn Prelude Bicycle is certainly for the serious commuter. This is a tough, light weight, and well-built bike. Speed is of the essence when it is time to be at work, and this bike gives that to you. Although it may not be as impressive looking as some, it will hold up for years to come, and is reasonably priced.

The brake calipers on this Schwinn Prelude Bicycle help keep the tires centered, and it is well balances and easy to shift. Some drawbacks do exist on this bike, however. You cannot get past the position of the brakes. Precious milliseconds are wasted getting to them which can mean trouble in a hurry. It does take some assembly after taking this bike out of the box, and it is a bit complicated, and at times the chain rubs the frame. Nevertheless, this is a steal at $250. When you weigh all your options, you will see that this price is pretty fair for a quality adult bicycle.
