Road bike also has wider tires so that they can be used for off-road riding. Some people would choose the road bike because this is faster as compared to a hybrid bike. The choice will still be up to you and what your needs are. A hybrid bike is ideal for riding around the city but if you are planning to go through some roads that are not paved, a road bike may be more ideal.

This type of bike is popular because it can be used in places where road bikes cannot go. Hybrid bikes can be used off-road, and it has more weight compared to road bikes. Road bikes, on the other hand, are bikes that are used only on a paved road. Road bikes are most times called race bikes, because they look so much like race bikes, probably due to the similar drop handlebar design the two types of bike have.
