Support Cycling Mountain
wondering which bike is best, looking at trek fx series?
Hi, i recently started cycling because i realized it’s a fun and easy way to exercise, and I’ve lost twenty pounds in a short period of time riding my mountain bike every day. I’d like to upgrade to a bike that is a little better quality than the bike i have right now. The Trek FX series seems very appealing because i mostly ride in the city, but don’t want a road bike. My biggest question is what size, and maybe what other brand hybrid would support my 5′9 250 pound frame the best. I want something sturdy and still quick. Thanks a lot
Great bike! More importantly is the stand over height to the top tube of the bicycle bar. For road riding I personally like a larger frame, so I’m less than an inch over the top tube. When you go to a shop they can assist in proper sizes.
You may also want to look at Forge Bicycles, they make a model called the M Steet. This is an excellent bicycle for the price. The design is primarily used for commuting and fitness.

I own a few Forge Bicycles and like the quality for price.
