Hybrid
A very hazy term that covers an enormous variety of different styles of bike. Anything that falls between a road bike and a mountain bike is lumped into this diverse category.
Options are available with different frame materials, wheel and tyre sizes, some with suspension and some without. The thing that unites hybrid bikes seems to be riser handlebars. These provide a very upright riding position that feels familiar and comfortable to both experienced cyclists and complete newbies.
Hybrids, like ‘all-road' bikes, are also extremely versatile and are a true jack of all trades, but a master of none.
