"Now this is my type of bike. Cool bike to cruise around the lake. I like it. I'm Jeremy with Gregg's Cycles and there are a lot of bikes and maybe this isn't your type of bike. So, what type of bike should you buy? First of all you got to figure out where you're going to ride? How you're going to ride? Where do you want to go? Maybe, you want to be a commuter, you're going to commute to work. This is a commuter bike. We're set up, we got good gears, you sit up high on the thing, you can look around. You even got rubber strips here so you can put it up against the lamppost and not worry about hurting your bike. Great commuter bike. Maybe you do want to cruise around and this is a bike. Get a Sparker, great for the lake. Maybe I want to do some off road mountain biking. Full suspension style with a bike like this. But you got to know what you're going to do and how you're going to do it. Maybe you want one bike that's going to do everything. Mountain bikes can do that for you. Put some slick tires on it and do some different things with accessories and you can ride anywhere on this bike. So the biggest thing to decide when you're trying to figure out what kind of bike you want to buy is what you're going to do on that bike? How often you're going to ride it? And how much you want to spend? Because you can spend seventy five hundred dollars if you want. And this is just a few of them to figure out what type of bike you want to buy."
