4. Comfort Bikes

The original runaway popularity of mountain bikes was mainly related to their greater comfort for casual cyclists, compared to the drop-handlebar, skinny-tire sport-touring bikes that had been the predominant adult style through the '70s and early '80s.

As mountain-bike racing became more organized, mountain bike designs started to morph into a more competition-oriented riding position, with longer top tubes, lower handlebars, narrower saddles, shorter wheelbases and more upright frame angles.

By the late '90s, this trend had gone so far that many casual cyclists were finding mountain bikes uncomfortable.

In response, the industry came up with comfort bikes. Typical comfort bikes resemble mountain bikes in wheel size, brake and gear equipment, but also differ in several ways:

Shorter top tubes, for a more upright riding position
Taller, often adjustable, handlebar stems, also for a more upright riding position
Wider saddles with springs (and/or suspension seatposts)
Smooth, wide tires for quiet and comfort on smooth surfaces
Lower bottom brackets for easier mounting/dismounting

Comfort bikes are often seen as slower, stogier versions of hybrid bikes, and are targeted at pretty much the same market.

2. Road Bikes

In the broadest sense, these are any bicycle designed to be ridden primarily on pavement. Usually, the term "Road Bicycle" is used to refer to a sport bicycle with drop handlebars and narrow tires.

Road bikes dominated the bicycle market in the 70's and 80's prior to the mountain biking revolution. Because of the recent popularity of mountain bikes, road bikes are almost solely built with the advanced cyclist in mind. If you ride long distances or compete in road competitions, these are the bikes for you.

These bikes are also referred to and categorized as:

* Competition
* Racing
* Touring
* Track
* Triathlon

1. MOUNTAIN BIKE

1. Mountain Bikes

The most common style of bicycle, the Mountain bike makes up about 1/3 of the total bicycle market. Invented in the 1970's, the Mountain bike has quickly supplanted the Road bike in general popularity.

Mountain bikes are built for off-road riding and are known for their upright riding style, cleated tires and suspension systems. The popularity of Mountain bikes has given rise to several sub-categories of Mountain bikes including:

* Downhill
* Hardtail
* Cross Country
* Aggressive
* Adventure
* Trials

While Mountain bikes are very popular, many of the models are designed for the hard core racer or bike enthusiast, though the less-expensive models are designed for the casual bike enthusiast.
