I have just registered to do the Women's Danskin Triathlon in September. I have experience with the swimming and running elements but am basically a total bike novice.
I want to purchase a bike to train and compete on. Having done some research myself I feel that a Hybrid/Comfort bicycle will suit my needs best. This is a personal quest for me - I'm not looking to break any records here! Ultimately I will use the bike to do the odd sprint triathlon and for cycling with my family.
I would appreciate any advice on makes, models, price range I should be looking in (I don't really want to spend a fortune).
