Best Value – Score 4.5/5 out of 100+ ratings

Upright riding position, low crossbar for easy mounts and dismounts

MSRP: $549
REI Co-op

While the CTY 1.1 is in the entry-range of women's hybrid bikes, its components are built for light, recreational cycling.

There is no need to worry about the durability of the bike though, as it's made of strong, yet light-weight aluminum, with a maximum load capacity of 300lbs. Pumping the tires can be a bit unusual at first since the bike has Presta valves, but the speed of those wheels compensates for that factor. It's also equipped with disc brakes that are a great bonus on a bike in that price range.

Best For Recreational cycling

• Durability: 6061 aluminum frame and fork
• Comfort: Selle Royal saddle, platform pedals, low crossbar for easy mounts and dismounts, flat handlebar
• Versatility: Full fender & rack mount compatible (sold separately). 3 x 8 drivetrain
