  1. Has anyone come across a website with infomation on frame geometry for
    different "types" of bike, mainly the difference between road and MTB
    but interested to see where the standard (if there is one) hybrid fits
    in. Most of what I've found discusses the differences in terms of how
    you use the bike, not in the physical differences between the geometry.

    I would have thought that a MTB would have a higher BB and more compact geometry (generally speaking) than a road bike. A hybrid would essentially be road geometry but with slacker angles...more a touring sort of frame. That's what I would expect, anyway. I don't know if that's refected by reality.
