Hybrid bikes and city bikes meet the needs of recreational cyclists from gravel trails to the city streets. Here's our guide on how to choose the best for you.

How is the low weight of a lightweight hybrid bike achieved?

The lighter your hybrid bike is, the more agile and faster you can move around. So, it makes sense to take a look at the weight specification in the product description of your new bike. But where exactly do the differences lie that cause different weights in hybrid bikes?

A significant factor for the lightweight of a hybrid bike is the frame. Modern hybrid bike frames are made of aluminium with tapered tubesets. These are particularly sturdy and lightweight.

Especially lightweight Canyon hybrid bikes are almost orientated towards a mountain bike and do without mudguards, integrated lighting, and a pannier rack. The big advantage here is that you become even more capable off-road, but still benefit from the outstanding performance on the road and can get from A to B much faster than with a classic mountain bike.

What are the advantages of a lightweight hybrid bike?

A lightweight hybrid bike undoubtedly makes your adventures on the bike easier. You can climb mountains more easily and the bike is generally more agile and easy to handle. So, with a lightweight hybrid bike, you benefit from improved riding behaviour and, in turn, have more fun on two wheels.

A lightweight hybrid bike is also a good basis for mounting additional components, as the total weight remains moderate even with full panniers. It is also worth noting that you can easily carry a lightweight hybrid bike out of the cellar or lift it onto the bicycle rack on your car.
