Hybrid

The hybrid bike combines elements of road and mountain bicycles to create one bicycle which can serve many purposes. It tends to feature an upright, comfortable frame, tyres of medium width, and gearing suitable for various terrain.

Hybrids sacrifice road bike speed and mountain bike full suspension capability. This makes hybrids less specialist and versatile. Hybrids are good on paved paths, smooth gravel, and city riding. Hybrids provide an upright ride and are easy to maneuver. Hybrids are helpful and comfortable for endurance athletes who need to train lightly or just travel around. Hybrids are not typically raced because they are not as fast.
