I have a road bike but its too difficult to ride, I dont like the control of drop handle bars and its difficult to cut through a park or hop onto pavement if I ever need to (not that I do that while on the road but I'd rather not have to follow exactly the same path I would in a car).
I have about £400 to spend, that is preferably max. Only requirement really is that it is light..
Will be using it for commuting, but I wont cycle on main roads anymore, so just residential roads and riding through parks (no off road stuff, just park pathways that are uneven with twigs etc, basically think riding on grass I suppose)
When I bought my road bike I realised afterwards that at this price range they are almost all exactly the same and the time I wasted researching was more valuable.
Does anyone have a hybrid bike that is light?
spose i should just dive in and buy something like this http://www.evanscycles.com/products/trek/70-fx-2011-hybrid-bike-ec025529#features without worrying about it but I dont want it weighing 14kg or something (they never say the weight)
