Tandem bike for local tourism

Riding a bike into nature together with your loved one - what could be better. However, such a problem often arises when a girl is unable to withstand a long distance on a bicycle. Because of this, such trips are often canceled. But there is a way out - tandem bike... About what it is, and what other advantages it has, today's article.

What is a tandem bike

When the first bicycle was invented, the first ideas soon appeared on how to make this type of transport two-seater. And the main idea of ​​the designers was to use the second person not only as a passenger, but also as additional propulsion.

As a result, tandem bicycles appeared, in which the person sitting in the front pedals and steers, and the one who sits in the back is engaged only in pedaling and may not take care of the steering wheel while riding.

Advantages of a tandem bike

There are a lot of advantages of this type of transport

1. High speed of movement. It's easier for two people to push the same bike. Accordingly, the speed of movement of such a vehicle in a straight line will be higher than that of a conventional bicycle.

2. Freedom of movement of the second cyclist. While driving, you can periodically drive without holding the steering wheel with your hands. And there is even nothing to say about the fact that you can freely consider the surrounding nature.

3. High speed will develop on it from the mountain due to its greater mass.

4. You can always swap and rest in the back with less pedaling. That is, you can easily shift some of the load onto your partner. It is very good when one cyclist is significantly weaker than the other.

5. The ability to work in tandem also develops riding this bike. The feeling of elbow should always be there.

6. Reinforced frame withstands straight driving without problems

7. The price of one tandem bike will always be cheaper than two single ones. Now you can find models from 15 tr.

Disadvantages of a tandem bike

1. Of course, the main drawback can be called its weak maneuverability. Sharp turns on it cannot be overcome. And you will not be able to quickly go around some object.

2. Due to the greater mass of the entire bike, it is more difficult to drive it as a whole. You have to get used to this kind of driving.

3. The frame is designed to ride on a flat surface, and it is not a fact that it can withstand any curb or bump. Therefore, one must bear in mind and dismount if necessary.

4. Longer braking distances due to greater mass. Therefore, you should always remember this and slow down in advance.

In general, a tandem bike is an excellent tool for outdoor activities for two.
