I am going to buy a Hybrid Bike. I used to do lots of cycling but have not been on a bike for a few years, so the rules of the game seem to have changed and wonder if anyone could advise me.
I am comparing 2 bike, both Kona Hybrid Bikes. the first (I saw and liked) is a Kona Dew Plus, with a triple dyr' system of gears.. I was shown another by the bike shop, A Kona Dr Good Stubby, which is a really good deal (end of season) £500 instead of £750! the Dew Plus is an end of season but less discount...
The Dr Good Stubby has a Shimano Nexus 7 gear system... what sort of low gear will this give, will be be low enough for my old bones in the Scottish Borders?
I asked the bike shop what the gears in inches were and they just looked confused...
Can anyone advise me please?
