Switchback (hybrid)

    Switchback.jpg (90146 bytes)               

An adult comfort model, a hybrid is a cross between a mountain bike and a road bike.  They are easy to ride, and are designed for comfort and versatility. On a hybrid you are sitting upright, with a gel ergonomic saddle and suspension right in the seat post for added comfort. The tires are designed for both dirt and pavement: they are rugged on the sides and smoother in the center.  They can easily handle a graded dirt road, or the occasional patch of sand on the bike paths. Available in a standard 21 sp model or an upgraded SX  model (see below), which has additional suspension on the front tire fork for an even smoother ride.
