The Best Bikes For New Riders
The Versatile Fitness Bike
In a shop full of bikes made to excel in specific conditions, it can be hard to know which one is right for you. From sporty road bikes that focus on lightweight aerodynamics to rugged mountain bikes with incredible suspension systems, the jargon alone can be overwhelming. Fortunately, there’s one bike that stands out from the crowd when it comes to all-around use - the hybrid bicycle.
Hop On & Go
Think of it as a do-it-all everyday companion with comfort and safety in mind. It’s not speedy or extreme — just a good all-purpose recreational machine designed for happy riding.
All Paths Welcome
Hybrids combine the smooth, cushioned ride of a mountain bike with the sportiness of a road bike to carry you comfortably over a variety of surfaces.
Utility & Convenience
Add a rack, lights, and fenders to create one bike to do it all. You can use it as a commuter bike during the week, ride for fitness after work, and explore new routes on the weekend.
Specialized TURBO Vado (Electric Assist)
Pedal then go—over hills and past traffic. You can cruise to 28 mph for up to 80 miles (45 kph for up to 130 kilometers). And being 40% lighter than the average e-bike, it’s built to go with you. Up the stairs, down the hall—just about anywhere your life takes you.
Specialized Sirrus
When was the last time you rode a bike? Was it yesterday? Last week? Maybe it was 15 years ago? Sirrus X is your ticket to riding more, and to places you never imagined possible.
Kona Dew
The Dew is Kona's classic all-around commuter/townie option for someone looking for an affordable, comfortable ride. Equal parts functional and fun, the Dew is at home hopping curbs on urban rides, cruising the bike paths, or rallying your local taco truck time trial.
