Road Bikes.
Road bikes are the racing car of the bicycle world, just as a Mountain bike is the 4 wheel drive and the Hybrid is the family station wagon.
With their design based around the requirements of racing cyclists a road bike is fast, light and very suitable for long distance riding. They have narrow tyres for reduced friction with the road, and higher ratio gears to allow the rider to attain quite high speeds. We are fortunate to stock some of the premier brands of road bike including Colnago, Giant, Pinarello, Wilier, Ciocc, Opera, Argon, and GT.
Some models are designed more with the recreational rider in mind with a more relaxed riding position and perhaps even slightly easier gearing. We also stock some classical looking bikes from Scwinn and are also able to assist with Touring bikes for the intrepid traveller.
In recent years the trend has become for most road bike frames to be made of carbon fibre or composite materials, but in some cases a combinataion of carbon fibre and aluminium is used. Carbon fibre tends to offer greater comfort, lighter weight and potentially greater performance, although at a greater cost, whereas the use of aluminium gives excellent performance at a lower cost.
We realise that not all road bikes will be used to actually race on, but the sensation of speed and a post ride coffee is something most of us can enjoy.
