Mountain Bike or Hybrid for my wife
I am a road rider and have been trying to get my wife interested in riding. She doesn't have any interest in a road bike because of the drop bars. So, I am looking for an alternative.
I will eventually get a mountain bike for myself to ride trails and single track. So, I thought about getting my wife a hardtail mountain bike that she could ride on both road and trail. Aluminum may be a little harsh for road so I am considering a used carbon mountain bike.
Is a mountain bike a better alternative than a hybrid?
