IDENTIFACATION
Finding the bicycle to best suit your needs is made easy by the vast array of bicycle models and sizes available. Refer to the following diagrams to familiarize yourself with the names of the various parts on your bicycle.
Mountain Bikes & Crossbikes.
Mountain bikes are one of the most versatile bicycles. Wider wheel rims and tyres ensure maximum comfort and traction over a wider variety of surfaces and the frame and forks are strong, making them particularly suitable for rough terrain. Manoeuvring is made easier by the wider handlebars and convenient shift lever position. The Crossbike or hybrid blends features of the mountain and racing bicycles. Its frame is lighter than
a mountain bike but heavier than a racing bicycle, providing stability and comfort with increased speed.
