Every sport has its dangers. Just be careful. Although being careful doesn't necessitate to the sport being safer because sh*t happens when one least expects it to.

Just ride on and always wear a helmet. And then again its up to us to choose where we want to ride as well....

 

[KoChi]

[taka8gohiko]

anyone can intro a entry level bike for bout 200-400?

same here.. i'm looking for a bicycle for commuting and cycling purposes (>10km i think) ard that budget range too (though i dun mind spending a bit more if its worth it). I'm a noob when it comes to selecting a bicycle and I had asked this before some time back. I got some feedbacks and did some research.

Currently I'm considering between buying a commuter bike (Jamis commuter 1) or a hardtail bike (Polygon cozmic cx 1.0) and change to slick tire (i suppose this is hybrid?). from what i understand, the suspension makes ur riding on the road less efficient (correct me if i'm wrong) but if the front fork can be locked then does that mean there's no difference? Can advise me which type/one (or any other models) should i get?

Cheers
