New Poster/New Bike
New to the forum, sorta new to biking, bought a new bike this week. Been researching/lurking for a while. Bought a Diamondback Trace Hybrid. Got it on special for $450 this week. Been riding everyday since. Anybody owned one before and any suggestions for any upgrades?

Diamondback Trace is a nice bike. Enjoy, and pound some miles on it..... The snow around here has stopped my riding for the rest of the year! Darn it!

some people ride hybrids like road bikes - on pavement for moderately long rides trying to go fast. Others use hybrids for trail riding on various kinds of trails. Still others like hybrids for commuting and street riding. You can make your bike better once you know what kind of riding you want to use it for. Have fun.
