hi all currently have old appollo m/bike 21" frame 26"wheels 21speed suntour 48 tooth crank wheel ,find this a bit harder than older racing style bike to ride (legs rotating a bit faster)m also want somethig a bit more comftable to ride a hybrid cycle was suggested.
have looked at the likes of raliegh explorer/falcon adventurer/c/butler classick but found they have simular sized chainwheels 48 teeth/racing bikes seem to have 52 it seems if i want something to get up hills m/bike has been suggested comfort =hybrid although the hybrids do seem to offer a bit more comfort.
the avenger/c/butler have larger dia wheels 700cm but i do not know if a larger dia makes things easier or harder???
i do not want end up with a cycle that i find just as hard to ride as what i already own, having simular gearing there does not seem to be a modest priced hybrid with larger crank size
cycle is not for work just a bit of enjoyment and exercise
thank you
