Hybrid Bike Sale

Hybrid Bike SaleHow can I make my Marin Fairfax 2007 bike better for long distances?

I recently purchased a Marin Fairfax 2007 hybrid bike to travel around London, and I have so far been very impressed by it for commuting. Although I have taken in the country and found to exteremely slow for long distances. The man said in sales This is due to the small wheels designed for the acceleration. Is it possible to change the wheels to make it faster over long distances? Are there any other words of advice to accelerate the bike?

There are three methods for a faster bike:
1. bike weight shaving using components of lighter materials such as titanium or carbon fiber. It is a costly alternative.
You can also lighten your wheels with road tires. These are lighter. The tires match your wheels may need professional (local bike shop) intervention. A road tire that does not correspond to its rim can slide.
2. Change the size of your trays and cogset. You can use a road bike pedals are. These are larger and therefore faster forward speed linear, but require more effort to pedal faster. In addition, these usually come with only two platters. You would have to adjust your front derailleur accordingly. The controller will then speed dead. Or you can replace your front derailleur and shifter set out with an appropriate version instead.
You can change your cogset by one with the smallest sprocket with 11 teeth. It will also allow you to rotate the rear wheel faster.
3. Become a stronger rider. Lose weight, strengthen the lower body.

Certainly you can not change the size of your wheel towards greater without changing your frame and fork and chain and cable and ...

The size of the upper wheel is 29 ", the same size as a road bike. Maybe you need a road bike instead. But if you prefer the more upright riding position and the release of a better standover bike (or a terminal, which is usually called in your country), then it may be wise to buy a complete platform for 29-ER.

I looked up your bike. The componentry is already very well if you only use it for commuting. If you're in a situation that limits you to do that with your current position Marino, the move to thin road tires is the best alternative. Or you can look at this way: do not go so fast on a country road affords you more opportunities to take in the sights.

Hello 26 inch wheels are not small, they are standard size ..
Your dealer doesn't know bikes.
Ok there are some things you can do to "speed up"
1, change the speed so you have smaller gear wheels ... this will make it difficult to drive, but you go faster.
Two, changing tires for road tires ... knobbley not be on mountain bikes.
3, think about taking the bike back and then say this is not what you want .. you want more of a touring bike ..
Item .... you can not put bigger wheels on the bike .. one because the way the frame is contructed and two because it Arnt there is a lot bigger than 26 inches
