I’m a big fan of Specialized Crosstrail series. Why?</p>\n<ol>\n<li>Wider tires that are not as heavy as mountain bike tires but a lot more durable than road bikes. Can ride on pavement, gravel, clay, etc.</li>\n<li>Lockable front fork. Smoothes the ride even on pavement.</li>\n<li>Disc brakes that are heavier but allow for better stopping power.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>Every brand has a bike that offers these 3 features that to me make it the best family bike. So I’d suggest focusing on those features and good components (Schimano) and seeing what you can find used. Bikes lose a ton of value vs new, so easy to find a deal in your $500 budget.</p>\n","url":"https://micro.blog/valera/25289200","date_published":"2023-10-22T17:39:53+00:00","author":{"name":"Valera Kushnir","url":"","avatar":"https://cdn.micro.blog/photos/96/https%3A%2F%2Favatars.micro.blog%2Favatars%2F2023%2F32%2F110349.jpg","_microblog":{"username":"valera"}},"_microblog":{"date_relative":"2023-10-22 17:39","date_timestamp":1697996393,"is_favorite":false,"is_bookmark":false,"is_deletable":false,"is_conversation":true,"is_linkpost":false,"is_mention":true}},{"id":"25192708","content_html":"<p><a href=\"https://micro.blog/philbowell\">@philbowell</a> Spotlight like many of native Apple apps feels incomplete.</p>\n","url":"https://micro.blog/valera/25192708","date_published":"2023-10-20T12:58:51+00:00","author":{"name":"Valera Kushnir","url":"","avatar":"https://cdn.micro.blog/photos/96/https%3A%2F%2Favatars.micro.blog%2Favatars%2F2023%2F32%2F110349.jpg","_microblog":{"username":"valera"}},"_microblog":{"date_relative":"2023-10-20 12:58","date_timestamp":1697806731,"is_favorite":false,"is_bookmark":false,"is_deletable":false,"is_conversation":true,"is_linkpost":false,"is_mention":true}}]}
