X-mas Bike Suggestions
Now that the X-mas season is ‘officially’ on its way, here are some of my suggestions for the cyclist on your family:
Commuter bike:I would recommend the Kona Smoke. At around $350, this bike is a very inexpensive way to get to work. Although it has love it or hate it styling, those fenders fend off the water pretty good.

Do it all road Bike: The Ibex Corrida LT 4.4 has proven to be very versatile. Its a great commuter, a great bike to ride to the beach, a good bike for 50 mile fun rides. You can also keep up with the roadies since this bike’s skinny tires and 105 component group makes it a decent road bike. At $599., you can’t beat the value of this bike.

Full Suspension Bike:I really fell in love with the Kona King Kikapu. I was able to jump, climb and descend with this bike like no other bike I’ve ridden.

Hardtail Mountain Bike:I’ve never ridden a Hardtail before the Woodstock 505 and the Ibex Trophy 770. I gave the edge to the Ibex Trophy because of the better fork. You can’t go wrong with either bike.

All these bikes are great and accomodate any budget, it just depends what the purpose of the bike will be.
