I know, I know but I'll just quote my previous answer: "
I know it is overkill for the road but I would much prefer a solid, comfortable bike if I take on suddenly appearing potholes and things like that, plus I have a few friends that enjoy riding on forrest trails and I would like to join them as soon as I get enough experience" adding that I learned city bikes can be less comfortable and less sturdy than mountain bikes so although they are ideal for commuting in the city if it would be in good road structure, they would not be suitable for damaged roads, not to mention forrest ones, would this be accurate?
