Automatic Bicycle Gear Shift
Does anyone know any good auto bike or gear less mountain bike models?
My sis got a autobike mountain bike but I saw no make or model on it. I like the idea of not having to shift gears so I looking for an affordable bicycle that either automatic or gear less and I want something rugged like a mountain bike. Dirt bikes are great but I feel like a little kid riding one. Any suggestions?
Um, I would strongly suggest that you avoid any bikes with the auto-shifting feature. They are notorious for having frequent problems and if they break it is almost impossible to get parts. They are also not “rugged” and will not take much-if any- abuse.
Here’s what to do… go to a local bike shop and talk with them about an all-terrain bicycle. They start in price about $250 and are sufficient for riding on the road and offroad on groomed trails. They typically have 21 gears which are EASY to shift and are much lighter than any autobike I have ever seen. Some brands to consider are Diamondback, Raleigh, Jamis, Fuji, and KHS. In your price range, stay away from Trek, Specialized, and Cannondale.
The good thing about going to a shop is that you are actually fitted to the correct sized bike and it usually comes with a modicum of service. Don’t fall for the idea that bike shops are just for people that have big money to spend… it just isn’t true.
