spoken like a true hnf junkie lol

fair point though!

Honestly I was scared of it and weak at first but it makes you such a better athlete. Give it a try

investing in a good bike its worth it from experience u def get alot better performance out of a good bike than a shitty low quality bike.

you can easily get a fixed gear bike and cruise around for fitness for under 500$ or get a decent road bike for 600 without the bells and whistle as a starter. its def worth the investment.

ive got a hybrid and can do long distances and cost me under 500 canadian and been using it for over 3 years no issues

get something like this

or this

could get u some good milage just an example tho

For the casual cyclist, 5 to 10 speeds is more than enough.

However, bikes with fewer gears usually (not always, but usually) fall into one of two categories: heavier frames (cf: Electra Townie and similar bikes) or cheaper (ie, mass produced) framesets.

For your needs, I think ^ Orakpo is on the money, suggesting a used, or otherwise older bike. Your local shops may have something that fits your wants and budget, or you might be able to score something on craigslist.

check pink bike

buy a fixie like all the cool kids

Daily bike commuter here, if you're looking to bike daily I'd either recommend investing in a road bike with decent parts (even entry level shimano parts like claris / sora sets will last you years longer than cheaper parts) so you're not constantly in need of repairs or go with the much cheaper fixie that'll work rain or shine.

Otherwise you're going to end up like 90% of people that buy a bike for commuting, you bike for a week, something breaks, never get it fixed, never bike again.

edit: also buying online can get great deals but they do require assembly, which if you're uncomfortable doing yourself might run an extra $75 at your local bike shop. (youtube has an enormous amount of helpful vids on putting any type of bike together)

edit 2: also used bikes can be amaaaazing if you know what you're looking for, just requires a little research into bike parts and in no time you can ballpark pretty much any bikes retail value!

Yes always look for used syringes before new, save money and they're already broken in
