Bike Bicycle Handle
Bike Bicycle Handle
What kind of bike should I buy?

I want to take up cycling - nothing serious, just for entertainment. A simple bike to cross the promenade, but ready for training if necessary. I life in San Francisco so it's a lot of hills. Nothing too expensive, hopefully less than $ 150. Should I go with the bike race with ram horn-shaped handles, straight bar or mountain biking? or anything else. Please help a newbie.

I agree with another reviewer that $ 150 is a fairly low budget for a bike. But if you only have $ 150, a cheap bike is better than no bike. Since you are mounted on all roads, it should hold for a while. But do not expect to cling to mountain biking. Either go to a department store or search used bikes (Craigslist is a lot). I doubt the bike shops that carry the bikes cheap. I would use craigslist because you will get a better bike for the money. When choosing a bike do not even consider full suspension, which lowers the quality of the bike. The front suspension is very common now, but if you can find a bike completely rigid it would be good since it is only necessary suspension on dirt roads, no roads in San Francisco. A rigid bike, no suspension would best parts of a bike with suspension. Moreover, as cheap bikes usually come with suspension that does not work very well. Not sure if you can get a old road bike (I guess that's what you mean racing bike) for the price, but would be nice. Otherwise, try to get a hybrid. If you do not can find either a hybrid, then get a mountain bike. Make sure the bike has gears, unless you want to climb the steep hills San Francisco singlespeed. Most importantly, test ride the bike before buying it for sure nothing is broken and it's working properly. Good luck
