It's considered a hybrid because it's a slightly more upright ride than a road bike because the stem is a little taller. Also the tires are slightly wider than what you would run on a road bike. But...

Thank you very much. I turn 40 in less than a month and I've been out of cycling for a while. I figured this is a hybrid in the truest sense of the term. Great for the road with "narrow-ish" tires...
