I've only got a full suspension mountain bike (heavy) and tried going on some longer rides last summer. I had a couple different loops between 20 - 25 miles that would take 2 - 2 1/2 hours. Average speed of 10 mph. That's pretty freakin' slow. |
Yup, road bike for me most of the time, although I also have a couple of mountian bikes. Long road rides on a heavy mountian bike can be tough. My road bike weighs about 17 lbs and that can make a huge difference. If you're riding trails that's not too bad. If you're riding roads you might want to get some smooth tires that helps too.
