Hybrid Bikes, Rim Brakes & Cycling Sweaters

If you are looking for a hybrid bike online, you might be surprised to see the term appears to have gone the way of the "10-speed." Kristin and Steve talk about when hybrids were first introduced, what defines a hybrid, and most importantly, what to look for when buying a bike – because it turns out they are "not dead yet." We also talk about the strong opinions uncovered in a video about rim brakes on entry level bikes (we said what we said), Steve's "Tete de Course" wool sweater from Nike, and whether it is acceptable to wear a sweater with the UCI rainbow stripes.
