[QUOTE="Blackend, post: 2066912, member: 38772"] Echoing what rdst_1 said above, with cycles there is no real issue of maintenance. Go for a geared bike because pretty soon you'll wish that instead of buying a fixie you should have just bought a geared bike. From some experiences I have read on Cyclop, Firefox bikes are not very well built compared to what Decathlon makes (BTwin). LA Sovereign is another Indian bike company that makes some good bikes at affordable prices, I've never had any experience with their bikes so I can't really comment there. Slimmer tyres do help when riding on straight roads, such bikes are called hybrids. Their wheels are not as slim as a road bike but are comparatively slimmer than a mountain bike. Hybrids are also lighter in comparison to mountain bikes. Hybrids are not cheap though. A decent hybrid will set you back by 15-20k at least. Montra, an Indian bike maker, makes good hybrids ([URL]https://montra.in/bicycles/hybrid/montra-trance-pro-2015/[/URL]). Since you're just starting off, I suggest the Rockrider. If a few months down the line you feel like upgrading, you'll find buyers for your Rockrider on Cyclop fairly easily. [/QUOTE]
