A
new web site, called FindMeABicycle.com
(http://www.findmeabicycle.com/),
is a great new tool for both experienced
and novice
bicyclists as they plan their next bicycle purchase. There is nothing
for sale on FindMeABicycle.com. Nor is
there a fee to use the site. It is simply intended to be a free
helpful service for helping you decide on your next bicycle.
FindMeABicycle.com
provides two features that you won't find anywhere
else:
- a
simple step-by-step check list on how to purchase a bicycle,
including a guide that will help the user decide on the ideal
type of bike (mountain, road, hybrid, etc.) based on the needs
of the user; and
- comprehensive
lists of virtually every type, make and model of bike on the market
today.
The lists, compiled
from more than 100 bike manufacturers, contain information on more
than 2,600 bike models. The lists are organized by 15 different
types of bike: mountain, road,
hybrid, bmx, touring, tandem,
recumbent, women's, single speed, youth, track, cruiser, time trial,
cyclocross, and folding. The lists of bicycle models
are further broken down by frame material, suspension
system, and price. FindMeABicycle.com
won't replace the local bike shop, but will prove to be an extremely
valuable resource for anyone who's in the market to buy a bike.
