Frequently Asked Questions

What Frame size to choose of Hybrid Bike?

The first and most important thing to decide when choosing a perfect hybrid bike is the frame size. Different bicycle brands provide various frame size information, making it difficult to select the correct one. However, the idea or concept behind the correct frame size is the same for any bicycle brand.

1) Check your inseam length, which is the distance from the ground to your crotch area.

2) Refer to the bicycle size chart or bicycle dimensions and check the standover height. The standover height of a bicycle refers to the distance between the ground and the top tube of the bicycle frame when the rider is straddling the bike with both feet flat on the ground.

3) Once you have both pieces of data, look for the frame size where your inseam length is 0.5 inches to 3 inches more than the standover height of the bicycle.

What Gear to choose in Hybrid Bicycle ?

Hybrid bicycles are designed for city commuting purposes, exercise, or long routes.

1) If you are using a hybrid cycle mostly for city usage with flat roads and some flyovers, 7, 8, or 9 gears are more than enough.

2) If your terrain is hilly or has steep inclines, the front gears will be needed, for which 21, 24, or 27 gear options are most suitable.

What fork to choose Rigid or suepension in Hybrid Bicycle?
