From bananas to mushrooms to stars – one of Portland’s bike lanes is looking more like a race track on Nintendo’s Mario Kart game.

Looking for a few websites to help me find the right bicycle for me? http://www.123bicycles.com/bicycle-reviews/looking-for-a-few-websites-to-help-me-find-the-right-bicycle-for-me http://www.123bicycles.com/bicycle-reviews/looking-for-a-few-websites-to-help-me-find-the-right-bicycle-for-me#comments Thu, 02 Sep 2010 03:02:40 +0000 admin http://www.123bicycles.com/bicycle-reviews/looking-for-a-few-websites-to-help-me-find-the-right-bicycle-for-me

I’ve been searching for a website that does bicycle reviews, and/or makes bike suggestions. I’ve found plenty telling you the difference between cruisers, mountain bikes, and hybrids, but not to help me find anything specific, or that just has lots of info on what bikes are out there.
I know I should find a bike that fits me personaly, howeve I feel the same about cars, and I don’t go to a dealership before reading up, and getting an idea of what I want to look at.

Is the Schwinn Frontier Sport a good mountain bike for moderate to intense mountain and offroad biking? http://www.123bicycles.com/biking/is-the-schwinn-frontier-sport-a-good-mountain-bike-for-moderate-to-intense-mountain-and-offroad-biking http://www.123bicycles.com/biking/is-the-schwinn-frontier-sport-a-good-mountain-bike-for-moderate-to-intense-mountain-and-offroad-biking#comments Thu, 02 Sep 2010 03:02:35 +0000 admin http://www.123bicycles.com/biking/is-the-schwinn-frontier-sport-a-good-mountain-bike-for-moderate-to-intense-mountain-and-offroad-biking

I just bought one and was wondering how well it will hold up to some heavy offroad biking. Is it very durable. Are there weak points? Not looking for other suggestions of bikes, just looking for experience on the Frontier Sport.

You asked, "Are there weak points?" Hate to be the bearer of bad news – but yes. The rear gear cluster is a Shimano 7sp 13-28 freewheel not a cassette. See link below from Sheldon Brown. A cassette hub combined with double walled rims vs. the single walled rims on your bike would be better suited for rough terrain.

All-in-all, priced about the same as a Trek 3500. Good entry level mountain bike. Just don’t be doing anything extreme on it.

Im 14 years old, 5 feet 4 inches and 110 pounds and i am looking for a dual slalom mountain bike. I want it to be a good durable bike that is under $1500. What would be a good size bike for me. I you know any thing else that would help me i would appreciate it.
Thanks, Cole

I would look at hardtail dirt jumpers such as the KHS dj’s, Kona stuff, GT chucker, Jamis komodo, and Specialized P bikes.

What are the cheapest road bikes you can buy? http://www.123bicycles.com/road-bikes/what-are-the-cheapest-road-bikes-you-can-buy http://www.123bicycles.com/road-bikes/what-are-the-cheapest-road-bikes-you-can-buy#comments Thu, 02 Sep 2010 03:02:27 +0000 admin http://www.123bicycles.com/road-bikes/what-are-the-cheapest-road-bikes-you-can-buy

I am looking for road bike that would be affordable. Not looking for anything fancy- just a 10 speed road bike that doesn’t look alot crappy and something I can use for a couple of years without any problems.
Looking for a brand name or a place to buy.
Under $500

I agree that Giant is a good place to start — I just bought one myself. Go to the bike shops and see if they have taken anything in trade. That way you’re getting a used bike that’s been checked over by a qualified technician.
