Bikes For Boston

Whether you live or work in Boston or the surrounding suburbs, the capital of Massachusetts has it all. From number-one ranked sports teams to world-class colleges and universities, the streets of Boston are alive with opportunities for entertainment and education. It’s also rich in history with museums and locations that tell the story of this great nation. To beat the congestion and take it all in without wearing out the soles of your shoes, riding a bike through the city is highly recommended.

How to Choose a Bicycle To Ride In Boston

The streets of Boston are as diverse as the people that live there, and depending on what you are doing and where you are going, you will want to choose a bike that can handle the terrain but also comfortably fit your body. If you haven’t been riding in a while, you may want to purchase a starter bike. These are designed for an easy mount with cruiser tires that provide a smooth, stable ride. It may remind you of your childhood rides around the block, but starter city bikes give you a comfortable adult adventure.

While bikes are divided into riding categories, they are also divided according to size. Before you look at which bike you need, you will want to measure yourself for the perfect fit. No ride will be comfortable with the wrong size. Start by measuring your height and your inside leg height. A bike description will tell you the stand-over height, which is how you evaluate a good fit for your stature. Stand-over height is measured from the top of the top-tube on the frame down, and you need enough clearance to mount or dismount without injury.

Biking to Work In Boston

Parking can be hard to come by in a busy city like Boston, so biking to work has both practical and financial benefits. It is a lot easier to find parking for your bike than a vehicle, but it also costs less. In addition to comfort needs, your bike will also need consistent performance and durability. For biking to work, you will want to look at what commuter bikes can do to make the trek easier. Those who commute via the bike need a frame that is lightweight and manageable, since you may have to carry your bike down to the subway platform or up a few stairs to the parking section.

The tire choice on a commuter bike is generally a hybrid, offering the comfort of a cruiser but with wide enough wheels to give you speed without added effort. Some of the higher-end bikes will come with disc brakes, which give you a more reliable and powerful stop in all types of weather conditions. Rim brakes are generally the standard inclusion on the more affordable models, and though safe and efficient, you may want to choose disc brakes if your commute involves a lot of traffic.

Is Boston Bike Friendly?

The entire state of Massachusetts is considered one of the most bike-friendly states in the nation, and Boston ranks high on the list of the state’s best places for cyclists. Across the nation, Boston is ranked 5thin cities that have developed infrastructure, public safety efforts, and policies that encourage cycling. For the city, it isn’t just a pastime or alternative commute option. Biking is a lifestyle, with the city of Boston making it easier for cycling enthusiasts to enjoy their ride.
