Mountain Bikes Learning Center
Mountain bikes
Mountain bikes can be taken onto terrain that road bikes just cannot
handle. Mountain bikes range greatly in price and “ability.”
BMX bikes
BMX bikes have 20 inch wheels rather than the basic 26 inch wheels
that most mountain bikes have. BMX bikes have definitely found their
niche in the world of biking.
Schwinn bikes
Schwinn bikes have long been famous for being the best bikes in
the United States… at least around the early to mid 1900s.
Have you ever owned a Schwinn bike?
Tandem bikes
Tandem bikes, aka bicycles built for two, are not just for joyrides
anymore! You can see more and more tandem bikes not just on the
road, but on mountain bike trails, as well!
Bike accessories
The most important of all bike accessories is the bike helmet. Of
course, there are many other bike accessories that you should consider,
like bike shorts, a multi-tool, tubes, chain lube, etc.
Bike helmets
Bike helmets, aside from the bike itself, are the most important
piece of biking equipment that you can own. Be safe. Wear your bike
helmet.
Bike rack
A bike rack is, perhaps, the next accessory you should add to your
car. After all, a bike rack will allow you bike in places you could
never simply ride to!
Bike shorts
Bike shorts are a necessity for a comfortable ride. Of course, bike
shorts have long been made fun of for their tight, revealing, and
padded fit.
Cycling shoes
There are a multiple types of cycling shoes. For the most part,
you need to decide whether you want cycling shoes that clip into
your pedals, or ones that simply have no loose laces, etc.
Bicycle
accessories
Finding great bicycle accessories can be easy, if you know where
to look. You can find excellent bicycle accessories at your local
shop, but you can find the best deals online!
Cycling jersey
A cycling jersey does not just look cool… it will also keep
you cool. More than that, a cycling jersey will keep your lower
back covered (a spot that non-cycling shirts often miss).
Cycling apparel
When buying your cycling apparel, you must think first of what items
you really need. The most important cycling apparel is your helmet!
Cycling
sunglasses
Cycling sunglasses are going to keep the wind and the dirt out of
your eyes. There are cycling sunglasses for the day, bright light,
dim light, dusk, and dark, etc.
Bicycle tires
Bicycle tires are not one size fits all. Depending on what type
of bike you own (mountain bike, road bike, BMX, etc), you are going
to need different sizes of bicycle tires.
