A hybrid bicycle is designed for use on roads and bike paths, combining in highly variable degree features of a road bicycle and a mountain bicycle. The hybrid bicycle retains the features of mountain bicycles which have made them accessible and popular while making them more suitable for urban use.

In general, hybrids use mountain bike gears to make riding in hilly environments easier, and have an upright riding position similar to a mountain bike. Handlebars are neither downturned like a road bicycle nor flat like a mountain bicycle. Rather, they have a slight upturn, providing for a more upright seating position.

Hybrids are a must for cyclists who wants ease and comfort without compromising speed and agility. Perfect for the rider who prefers a 'straight back' riding position, hybrid bikes are here to stay. SKC stock a wide range including Gitane, Bottechia, Cannondale and Merida.
