I'm an old lady (70) who has done some light duty cycling in the past (latest was 2018). Unfortunately, my last bike (a Pinnacle Cobalt 1) was stolen :'( which put me off getting another. However, I've got over it now and there are many cycle paths around where I live so I want to get another bike and make use of the local options. Having just joined this forum, I don't know my way around it yet, so please be patient with me! Anyway, I'm looking to get a new bike but it's not easy choosing one. The Cobalt 1 was ok, but I have to admit, it was really a bit heavy for me. That's because I have to carry it up and down two flights of stairs which for a little old lady like me is tricky, if not dicey! What I really want/need is something in between a heavy-ish hardtail and a lightweight road bike so any advice, suggestions will be gratefully received. It's annoying that it can be quite hard to get the weight info for a particular bike even though it's important for me to know! Well, it is for me!
