Hi all new to this forum, I am looking to get a Hybrid Bike as wishing to get into cycling. I am a larger person and am looking for a bike which will be able to take me down light gravel tracks but mainly for road use. I want to use it to get "fit" and hope to take part in cycling events such as L2B. Would anyone be able to suggest a Hybrid bike for £350 or below. Thanks in advance.

I love the 2011 Trek 7.3 FX I bought used before this season. I put on 35 mm tires instead of the 32 mm it came with because I ride a lot of gravel. I weigh about 147 kg, so I would qualify as super-sized, and the bike does well for me. It rolls very well, and seems to absorb the bumps and road buzz pretty well.

230 pounds (104 kilo's) here when I started on my Fuji Absolute I picked up for WELL under your budget. Seems to do well for me. Welcome, and good luck!

welcome to the best past time activity in the world,cycling that is...i do hope u can find the bike u r hoping for!
