Road Bikes

“So many models, so little time to ride them all.  Well, having a bit of strategy never hurt did it?  When it comes to Road Bikes it’s important to start with a good understanding of frame materials before deciding which direction to go in.  This will allow you to dial in the ride quality you’re looking for in the price range you’re after.

 

 

STEEL
Tried and true, the classic feel of steel is hard to beat.  Smoothes out the road vibrations great, but weighs a bit more than the other materials.  Steel is often found at the entry level or the high end of pricing.
Complete bike price range: $975- $6000.

Models that we carry:

Surly Long Haul Trucker – $1,095

Salsa Casseroll – $1,199

Salsa Vaya – $1,499

 

ALUMINUM
Lighter and more responsive than steel.  You might feel the road vibrations a bit more,  but when you step on the pedals the bike responds instantly.  Look for Aluminum at entry to mid level prices.  Complete bike price range: $625 – $1400.

CARBON

Titanium:

Often overlooked by the Carbon crazy crowd.  Titanium offers comparable weight and comfort to Carbon with a higher level of durability.  Truly a lifetime material.  If you travel, are prone to crashing, or just recognize beautiful craftsmanship, consider a Ti bike.  Complete bike price range:  $4000 – $15,000.

Custom:

Contrary to popular belief, custom road bikes are not just for the elite athlete.  If you aren’t built like the “average” person, have some medical concerns, want the perfect fit, or just like things made specifically for you, a custom bike is the answer.
Complete bike price range: $3,000 – Sky’s the limit.

After you decide on a frame material, consider the quality of wheels next and finally the supporting components (shifters, derailluers, etc.).  Above all though, a bike that fits is the perfect bike for you!  Our Serotta certified fitters offer the most comprehensive menu of Fitting Services in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and Eastern Idaho.  Come in and check out our Fit Studio!
