Invention and evolution of the bicycles

Traditionally bicycles are two-wheeled and self-propelled modes of transport. The first design of one was back in 1817 and was created by Karl von Drais. Bicycles have come a long way since then and come in many different forms. Here is a short history to get you up to speed.

Road bikes are lightweight vehicles that primarily serve those who want to ride in an urban area with smooth paved roads. Examples of uses for road bikes include long-distance commuting in a large city or participating in on-road races. It is important to note that road bikes often are not designed to carry heavy loads. Mountain bikes are typically more rugged and feature lower gears and stronger brakes than other bikes, enabling them to better deal with the hazards faced in rough, off-road terrains. Mountain bikes also typically have either single or dual suspension systems. Hybrid bikes are designed to offer advantages associated with road and mountain bikes. Capable of dealing with both paved and gravel roads, they are excellent for casual suburban riders who enjoy riding on neighborhood trails and running errands on their bikes. Suitable for short commutes, hybrids typically have large padded seats and front suspension systems. Those interested in lower-maintenance vehicles can also look into fixed-gear bikes, which have only a single gear, rendering them light and lower-weight than their counterparts.
