Is it better to convert a road bike or a mountain bike into a commuter bike? - cannondale lefty
I really want a bike that can be used for transportation. My bike is very light, fast 3-4 hours, kilometers, but my mountain bike handlebars and was resistant, and disc brakes. ... But the conversion of mountain biking, it is in the country, meaningless, since the beginning of the tires is not easy with my bike (Cannondale Lefty) fork.

Cannondale Lefty Is It Better To Convert A Road Bike Or A Mountain Bike Into A Commuter Bike?

There is no wrong answer here. I think you're the one who knows that his journey better than we do. If your roads are in good condition for your trip, you can focus on something a little heavier and tires, making sure that it fits on a racing bike. You do not have flat bars and expensive to convert. You could buy a silo shorter stalk, get up to the bar and closer. If you are you very good bike racing, you can choose the tires hard, less expensive and beyond.
If your roads are in poor condition, the wheel would be more suitable. Tire Service is an option. I have the wheels on my mountain bike for this kind of behavior. Since I do not know what it takes to hit a tire on a Lefty, I can not say change, it's simple. But it is so difficult? If you really want your bike tires ready for the change is too long. Only in its travel Knobbe rapid wear. Still with a 2nd Set of wheels with 1.5 marks.
Why do the tires? If you make a case for mountain biking and suburbs - they use - we will not say.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with her as Cannondale commuters, only changed the tires, not the banks. You can get a flat tire (the closer it fits to the current limit) tires without the wheel. She recommended they take on a maximum pressure and has a good role.
Trip!
Absolutely any bike can be good for the trip!
MCG answer that makes sense - Make your choice!

My friends are entitled to any bike can and what can the Cannondale, but you will eventually max so that the hybrid. The hybrid disc is like a mountain bike and lighter than the road bike and built the gearing is near the road. I would like to invest in a vacuum innertube as Nomore floors. (I do not use a crappier gear set - they tend to be hard on the tires of Nice be).
