Hybrid Road Bike
Hybrid or road bike cycling?
I cycle 6km a day to and from class and often more. I cycle on the roads but skip to the pavements as well. I want a road bike but they feel unstable and the handlebar position is too weird. Should I try and get used to a road bike or just go for a hybrid?
Is the difference in effort and speed significant?
Get a road bike that fits you so you don't have to ride on the pavements.
Edit:
A road bike will be much faster for the same amount of effort. I can ride 6km in less then 15 min with breaking a sweat. You should be able to do 30 kph on a road bike, much to fast to be riding on pavements.
