I currently own a 2009 Specialized Hardrock Sport. Still going strong but it feels somewhat not suited to my needs enough now. I used to use it when I went down with my friends to the park (I'm 14) or when I cycled into town. Now I'm primarily using my bike on road and I prefer things to be a lot easier if it's lighter. There are a lot of hills and things around my area though.
My question is obviously with everyone's experience, I need a young adults road bike that ISN'T a racing bike. Racing bikes quite frankly are a little too fast, scary and hard to control. And not entirely practical in where I live as it's full of occasional hills.
Budget doesn't matter for the time being as I've got my little part-time business that turns over a lot of money, so don't be scared to recommend something that isn't expensive.
I'm new to the forum so I hope I haven't posted this in the wrong area and thanks in advance!
