Comfort or better roll
Do you ride shorter than a mile, always downhill and without cargo? If not, take a look below to find alternatives to a charming granny bike.
Different frames
A u-shaped frame is convenient for shorter rides since it is easy to jump on and off. The higher the frame bar goes the stiffer the bike becomes and rolls longer for every turn. You'll be less sweaty and tired to the right.
Different handlebars
A comfort handlebar that comes up and backwards makes a shorter ride smooth with an up right sitting position and the bodyweight goes down in the saddle. Leaning forward however, makes your bodyweight go down in the pedals instead of the seat. You will get your bodyweight push down the pedals for free in every turn for an effortless and less sweaty ride when you get to your destination.
