Kids are old enough now that when they ride their bikes I can’t keep up by running along. I haven’t owned a bike in several years, but looking for something that I could use for commuting to work one or two days a week (10 miles round trip, and yes I have one of those jobs that’s still requires you to go to an office) in addition to some weekend rides with the kids. There are a number of hills along the way and some unpaved road. Low maintenance, reliable, and comfortable are important.
Couple of bikes I’ve been looking at:
Kona – Dew
Giant – Escape
Cannondale - Treadwell
Anything in particular to look out for? Thinking hydraulic disc brakes would be nice (loos possible at the higher end of this price range) as I still plan to have one child in a carrier or a tagalong.
Thank you in advance.
