Well I work at a place where we sell Specialized, so I'm biased a little. But ride all 4, in the same day, checking for the same things on every bike. The thing about bicycles is that the components that make the biggest ride difference(drivetrain, brakes, suspension, ect.) are made by somebody else and they are availible with whatever brand you want, the difference lies in frame geometry and materials. Everyone is different, everyone rides different. So figure out which bikes are in your price range, pick a sunny saturday or sunday and go bike shopping. Pick whatever feels best. Most brands/bike shops will offer a lifetime warranty on the frame, if they don't consider going somewhere else, and if you keep your bike tuned, regardless of brand, the parts will last a really long time(unless you ride real hard but that doesn't happen to too many hybrids).\n\nDon't forget wear a helmet, it'll could save your life. Ride on

you'll probably want a low-end mountain bike. go to your local bike shop, tell them what you'll be doing and they should be helpful. you should not feel pressured at all, otherwise find a different bike shop. Specialized hardrock (cheapest model is $360, bike shop's lowest price should be the same or less) would be good. the specialized Crossroads (cheapest model is $330, bike shop should be the same) also looks good. Trek is another great brand. schwinn and giant are not as good as they used to be, so i would not reccomend them, there are better bikes at similar prices. by all means, these are not the only good brands, there are many others out there! there are also some bike/ cycling forums on the internet that are very helpful when researching a specific bike, and peoples expirences with that particular bike. good luck!

Don't buy bicycle parts, you probably can't compete with his knowledge or contacts.\n\nFor purchase try:\n\nhttp://www.bikegifts.net/\n\nhttp://www.earthstudiomoab.com/\n\nThey have interesting bicycle art gift items.  \n\nMaybe get a picture of him racing, have it enhanced and mounted?\n\nMaybe make a picture frame yourself by adding one of his old tires, cut up and mounted to an existing frame.

Lance.....I dumped my wife and kids and then dumped my girlfriend when she got cancer....armstrong.....what a hero, what a man, what a jerk!\n\nLance Armstrong is a bad father, a bad husband, a womanizer, abandoned his children and people think he's great because he won the Tour 7 times.  The measure of man's greatness is not how many athletic events he wins or how many yellow braclets people wear in honor of his causes.  The measure of a man's greatness is his character.  Ask his children if they think Lance is a great man.\n\nTo "Live Strong" is to do what is right, to be a husband, a father and live a life of character.  Lance didn't overcome cancer, the doctor's and the medicine he took overcame cancer.

With the evidence that's out there, honestly, you can't tell.  I'm a Lance fan, I hope he didn't take performance enhancing drugs.  But no one can ignore the fact that Lance is the most tested athlete in the planet, and every single test came out negative.  (Except for the cortizoid cream incident.)  The "test results" that L'Equippe announced to the world - how credible is that?\n\nEither Lance Armstrong is a victim of a witch hunt, or he's so damn good that he's always one step ahead of the current doping test procedures.  I would like to believe it's the former.

As a former bike shop employee and NORBA racer I can tell you there are alot of great bikes out there. Trek is and always has been a good bike. Owning one will not make you Lance.Alot of all brands of bikes are made by China-bike for their entry to mid level bikes.Specialized is a great bike.Raleigh bicycles are wonderful machines I own a R-600 road model.But!....In my opinion and I have had,Schwinn's,Diamonbacks even a Pro-flex, Cannondale Bicycles are in a class of their own. They are hand made in America by bicyclists for bicyclists.Oh....yeah I have one....a Cannondale Super V-1000.........you need one too.

There are 3 common types of bicycles right now... road, atb, and mountain. I am going to assume you don't mean a road bike.\n\nA mountain bike is built for off road use in rough terrain, and usually has suspension for better handling. Suspension is NOT for comfort, but is to keep the wheels on the ground for control. These bikes are very unfriendly on the road. Expect to pay $600 or more for a mountain bike.\n\nAn ATB, or All Terrain Bike, looks a lot like a mountain bike but is built lighter and any suspension it might have has very little travel. It is good for on the road and light trails but will soon fail if taken on severe terrain. The cost anywhere from $250 to about $800 or so.\n\nThe other kind of bike that looks like mountain bikes or ATBs are found at discount stores like Wal Mart or Target. They tend to have all kinds of fancy features, but they don't tell you that they are only for looks... taking these bikes off the road or at worst on a groomed trail will mean trouble very quickly. Never get a bike from a discount store and expect it to perform well. you can't buy a mountain bike or an ATB for $169.99.

Suzuki Hayabusa GSX 1300R is 1300cc not 1400cc. The new Kawasaki Zx- 14R 2006 is the worlds fastest bike. Hayabusa GSX 1300R was fastest until Zx- 14R (now this one is 1400cc) came this year. But still love Hayabusa for its muscular look which is too hot to handle.

Perhaps you are thinking of SR Suntour.  They make components for bikes but I don't think they make bikes.\n\nHere is the SR Suntour weblink:http://www.srsuntour-cycling.com/standard.xml?vpID=113

Is it new or used?  If you are buying a new bike get a GSX-R.  If you know anything about bikes you already know that is the fastest production bike.  As far as a Katana goes all you can do is ride it and compare it to other bikes you tried out.  It's all personal preference when dealing with the feel of a bike.
