Road bikes are mostly used for commuting on urban streets. These are lighter in weight and have thinner tyres. Road bikes are faster and made for touring, racing and fitness riding. The reliability of your bikes mainly depends on the frame. Bike frames are what hold your bike together and the costliest of bike parts. You can always change bike parts but not the frame. The only way you can change the frame is by buying an entire frame, which will cost you more. Bike frames are made out of carbon, chrome, aluminium, titanium and carbon fibre. Titanium is expensive but reliable and sturdy. It is lighter, stronger, resilient and has more fatigue life than steel. Steel is the most common option for bike frames while carbon fibres are extremely light and resist corrosion.

Trek Bicycles incorporation was set up back in 1976 by Richard Burke and Bevel Hogg. The duo came together to join Burke's investment expertise and Hogg's bicycle knowledge to produce what is now, a world renowned bicycle company.
