I've only had standard frames and had no trouble with them being comfortable. If you can afford one with disk brakes all the better (but not necessary)!

I was in the same position when Wil first got me into biking. The best way to go about it is by riding on the quieter roads you feel comfortable with and then hop onto the pavements when you feel out of your depth. As long as you don't tear past pedestrians and realise they have right of way no one minds (I've even been left alone by coppers). But it helps you build your confidence slowly. Once you can go along, ride with one hand and look behind you without veering to the other side of the road you'll be fine! 5 min trip to work would be a perfect way to start because you wouldnt need to get kitted up.

I love your writing though. You have a very easy style and it's of novel quality. If there were pages I'd be turning them.... you have made me *want* a bike...

These bikes are rough and tough and can be sustained easily at mountains. This blog is related to Scott Mountain Bikes that one must own it because the prices are also cheaper.
