If a person has grown up riding regular bicycles and hasn't had much exposure to the sport of cycling, they wouldn't know that there are different types of bikes for different types of cycling sports. A racing bike is very interesting to see for the first time because it is built differently than a regular bike. A huge part of a race bike's effectiveness is its weight. As a result, racing bikes are probably not the most comfortable. The structure of the wheel is a very important part of the racing bike. How the rim of the wheel is shaped affects its aerodynamics. Fewer spokes, and even a different kind of spokes than regular spokes help this. The tires are also very narrow compared to normal bike tires in order to improve aerodynamics.

Besides the narrowness and lightness of a race bike, something else that can be different from a normal bike is the position of the handlebars. Race bicycling is a lot about being aerodynamic and lightweight so that you can reach the fastest speed possible.

For bikers young or old, leisure biking or biking for sport, it is important to have a bike tool kit for quick fixes like tire repairs.
