Cyclists today are spoiled for choice with bikes that fit a wide range of riding needs. That can make shopping for a new bike for Randonneuring, Audax, or long rides overwhelming.
This video serves as an overview of the considerations a cyclist should give when starting the hunt for the perfect bike. By going over the basics of fit, tire clearance, handling, build qualities and material choice, and component quality of different types of bikes, we can determine which features and qualities are most important versus least important, and desirable or undesirable when shopping for a new bike.
An informed cyclist is more likely to make a satisfactory purchase decision for their specific riding needs and budget. I hope this video help you find the right bike. Subscribe to catch a follow-up video on stock wheels and tires, and one change that can transform your new bike.
