I can’t seem to figure out what I should be getting for a bike. Looking to get back into biking after 10+ years of not owning a bike. Pretty much got my drivers license and sold my bikes. I had a Norco Ryde and a specialized P.1 and was into dirt jumping.
I’m older now and can’t see myself hitting any jumps. The photos show what terrain I’ll be biking on. Pretty much mostly gravel trails on the weekend and then weeknights just bike rides around the neighbourhood.
Any recommendations on what bike I should get? Should I get 2nd set of tires for pavement biking? Once I figure out if I’ll enjoy biking as much as I once did then I’d look at purchasing one bike for on pavement/city trails and then another for mountain biking.
Price range 1000 cad (so about 50 usd lol) and I will keep checking market place to see if I can land a deal on someone used to maybe get better features.
Bonus for comfortable helmet suggestions.
Also if I’m overthinking it please let me know lol.
