Commute By Bike - What Type Of Bike Should I Buy?
With so many bikes to choose from, we’ve put together this simple bike chooser to take away the confusion. If you’re new to cycling, or want a dedicated commuter bike, use the buttons below to help you find the right type of bike for your ride to work.
We think that sometimes electric bikes are the best commuter bikes, so we’ve also included an e-bike chooser. You can get any bike type from the Bike Chooser in an e-bike version too.

An Electric Bike is Best
