How many kinds of bikes are there anyway?

There is an almost unlimited variety of bikes out there on the market today. Many are custom built, one that is one of the more interesting is solar powered, has a computer, and the owner travels the country taking his office with him on his bike.

Another example is the man in Canada who lived on his bike.However, most of us do not want to go to these extremes. So here is a short list of the following kinds of bikes people choose from and are available for us to ride today:

● Utility bikes – made for carrying light loads. (Sometimes outrageous loads, as in China)

● Roadster Bikes

● Dutch Bicycles

● Freight Bikes – with a flatbed attached

● Butchers Bike – with a cargo compartment on the back

● Boda Boda – The ubiquitous African Bike taxi

● Messenger Bikes

● Carbon Fiber – light weight and as strong as steel

● Ice Cycles – You guessed it

● Mountain Bikes/Acts – designed for those who feel mountain climbing is done best on a bicycle

● Downhill bikes designed for people that once they get to the top of a mountain want to go all out going the other way as fast as possible

● Free riders – Bikes that have addition shock support and made for rugged use

● Fat Bikes – wide tires that allow them to be used over sand or snow. Alton Mammoth Fat-Tire Bike is considered one of the best fat bike

● Swiss & Swedish Military Bikes

● Triathlon Bikes – made to exercise the Gluts and hamstrings and have special handlebars and mounting hardware

● Track Bike – You see them on the indoor tracks at Spas and Health clubs

● BMX – Bikes these are the ones you see mostly in the air as their riders disdain keeping them on the ground for any length of time

● Cruisers Bikes – Balloon tires and comfort in mind Found in California on the beach or the boulevard

● Pedicabs or the bike rickshaws – Once famous in Asian countries and now spreading everywhere especially in downtown areas to cut down on pollution and noise

● Motorized bikes either electric or gas powered – used mostly with a flatbed to move goods and packages from place to place. In China, it is not uncommon to see them sharing the highway with cars in special lanes set aside for Bicycles.

● Vilano road bikes are popular among cyclist because of their simplicity in design & performance. :)
