An Affordable Carbon Road Bike From Stradalli Cycle

New to cycling or have an interest in it? There could be a few things keeping you from getting into the sport and most of the time it tends to be the cost of the bikes. Full carbon bikes do make a world of difference and the majority of cyclists enjoy riding, do it as a form of exercise or even just as a method of transportation. However, eventually you want to see how you can do against other cyclists, it’s addicting and that’s when you start to get really competitive. You’re in pretty good shape, you ride your bike for hours each week and you go for a group ride one morning or join in a small local race. Within 30 seconds you can’t even see the group and you are left in the dust.

Why did this happen? Are you out of shape? Are you that bad at racing? Probably not, the reason they got away from you so quickly is because you aren’t riding a carbon bicycle, yes it does make that much of a difference.

When you hear the term “carbon cycle” you think light weight and expensive. Understand that cycling is a hobby but to compete many riders want the advantage that pro racers get. Carbon bikes are lighter, more durable and give you a distinct advantage when riding. It doesn’t matter if you are a strong cyclist or not, if you aren’t riding carbon you will always be at a big disadvantage.

So you understand the value but the price is still too high! It’s true, full carbon bikes can cost as much as $10,000 or even more. Luckily for you there’s Stradalli Cycle.

Stradalli Cycle offers a great selection of carbon road bikes at an affordable price including the RD17 hydraulic disc brake bicycle with Shimano Ultegra 6800 andVision Team 30 Wheelset.

This is the perfect bicycle for a beginner cyclist who is looking to race more competitively and start pushing themselves. The bike is sturdy, handles great and of course is light weight to help you get the most out of your ride. But most importantly is that this quality of bicycle would cost you twice as much at local bike shops and big brand stores.

But how can you trust the quality? Half the price of the big brands sounds too good to be true. Well Stradalli anticipated that question and that’s why they put their money where their mouth is. The company sponsors/owns over half a dozen pro race teams and riders around the world including the Stradalli – Bike Aid German Conti Team, Stradalli – Papa John’s Women’s Elite Team and many more. 

Stradalli Cycle Tells You the Secret to Lose Weight!

Stradalli Cycle is going to tell you how to lose weight. Enough with the excuses, enough with the dieting tricks and workout routines that don’t work. Stop buying treadmills and gym memberships. One word will help you to lose weight, get healthier and eat better. “CYCLE” No that’s not a joke, you can change your entire life with a cycle and we will show you how.

First let’s look at the reasons your attempted diets have failed in the past.

1.       Stressed, Tired and Broke: Your boss was on your back all day, you were late to pick up the kids from school and by the time you got home you had too much to do to actually get in the kitchen and cook a healthy meal. Dieting is next to impossible in these situations and it’s understandable. Heck, it is cheaper to take everyone out for burgers than cook something healthy. How can you commit to a diet with all of those obstacles?

2.       Stacy at work: You try to like Stacy at work, you really do but she keeps bringing in donuts every morning. Doesn’t she know you are trying to lose weight! Actually this is a common joke among people who are dieting, they notice that people offer them treats all the time when they are trying to stick to their diet. It really is weird. Someone has a birthday and they get a cake, you walk into the grocery store and they are giving out free cookies to try, where are these people when we are not trying to lose weight?

3.       Motivation: Breaking News! Buying a treadmill or getting a gym membership are not motivation for you to start exercising more often. We make this mistake over and over, we think that if we buy healthy food and expensive gym equipment it will motivate us if not force us to get healthier. A week later we are throwing out rotting veggies and trying to find a place for our new gym equipment in the garage.

So how is riding a Stradalli Cycle going to change all that? Isn’t a bike just another piece of gym equipment that we are going to buy and not use? That is a good question and you are asking that because you obviously have never been on a bike. Here is why you need to get a bike:

1.       No excuses: You know that morning commute to work that you take every day and hate? What if you could skip it and ride your bike into work? Maybe not every single day but even 2-3 times a week? Think about it, you don’t have to sit in traffic, you don’t have to battle for a parking spot. You stroll into work with a great feeling because that’s what exercise does; it releases endorphins into our body which make us feel all gooey and special. It builds self-esteem up; it gives you more energy and puts you in a better mood. Isn’t that what we want?

2.       The addiction: Cycling is an addiction, not a hobby. That’s why people fall in love with it just like fishing or well….fishing. When you really get into biking you start finding time to do it, you make it part of your daily routine, you look for places to ride on weekends, you meet people who love cycling so you can go with them, you travel to other states and bring your cycle so you can check out the sites there. It really is an addiction.

3.       Diet: When your new hobby/addiction is also a great form of exercise you start watching what you eat as well. Ask any doctor and they will tell you that active people usually have a much easier time eating healthy than people who tend to just sit on the couch during their down time. You will actually tell Stacy to go to hell when she offers you that donut in the morning because you will be that motivated to stick to your diet. Just kidding, don’t say that to her, she’s just trying to be nice.

But before you go out and buy a bike make sure you get the right one! Ever hear of a carbon fiber bike from Stradalli Cycle? They are the kind of frames used in the pro races like the Tour De France and Richmond 2015 (UCI Road World Championships). They are awesome and extremely durable but the reason you want them is because they are light weight. What does that matter? Take a 40 pound weight and haul it up the stairs. Then take it into work with you, then try loading it in your car and you will understand why you want to go with a light weight bike, not to mention they are a way better ride.

So what are you going to do this weekend when you go out shopping for all of your new stuff to help you lose weight? Get a bike, get a bottle of water and get out there. It’s fun, it is a great way to improve your health beyond just losing the pounds and it will become your favorite new addiction. If you spend 1 month cutting the calories and fat from your diet even a little and get on your bike at least three times a week and don’t lose weight then your scale is broken. 

Carbon Fiber Bike: The Only Gym Equipment You Need

You bought gym equipment and it just sits there. We’ve all done it but the problem is you need to get healthier. You want to lose weight, have more energy, look better, feel better and more! You desperately want it but by the time you get off work, run errands and take care of everything else you have to do you are too exhausted to watch TV much less workout. That’s the reason you need a carbon fiber cycle, it is the gym equipment you don’t have to use for working out and still have fun with. You can’t take a treadmill everywhere, you can’t take weights everywhere but you can take a bike anywhere you want and in a lot of cases you can even ride it. Here are some reasons you should; actually you need to get a carbon fiber bike specifically:

1.     You get what you paid for: Carbon fiber bikes may be more money than the ones you get in retail stores but there is a reason. They last longer, weigh less and can take much more of a beating than your typical bikes. Those may not seem like important factors but consider this, when you have to haul your bike upstairs don’t you want it to be lighter? When you are going on a trail in the middle of the woods don’t you want to have the best quality bike? Those are two pretty good reasons to have a carbon fiber cycle.

2.     It pays for itself: What do you pay a month for gas? Imagine if you could cut that number in half! Now imagine being able to get rid of your gym membership, you don’t have to buy workout equipment and you also have less wear and tear on your car. Those are all things that happen when you have a cycle and use it frequently.

3.     Little motivation to get healthy: Buying workout equipment is not what is going to motivate you to get healthier. Getting that gym membership won’t either. The common mistake made when people search for health advice to lose weight is that they think if they eliminate watching TV and eating pizza they will naturally be healthier. Then you notice you are watching TV at the restaurant while eating a burger. Unless you are a professional athlete getting a workout doesn’t have to be an inconvenience, it can actually be fun. The more you workout the more motivated you are to eat healthy because you do not want to spoil your progress. So rather than having to run to the gym after work to get an hour of exercise in why not ride your bike to and from work?

4.     Wave to the nice people: You may not love the idea of riding your bike to and from work at first but wait until you do it. Remember your morning commute, the traffic, the cars not going on the green light because they are too busy looking at their cell phones, the construction workers standing around having their third cup of coffee? That’s what you are going to miss when you ride your bike to work! Can you do without all of that? Hopefully, but be sure to wave to all the nice people as you pass them by.

5.     Serenity now: Stress is a big factor in everyone’s lives and any health advice article you read will tell you that. The more stress you have the less likely you are to eat healthy and workout on a regular basis. Cycling helps with stress because going for a ride helps your mind to relax, it releases endorphins in your body which helps to increase happiness by reducing anxiety and depression and much more. How’s that for health advice?

When you are looking for carbon fiber bikes the important thing to remember is that you are investing in a lifestyle change, not just trying to lose weight or find a cheap way to get to work. Cycling is addicting and it goes well beyond health advice because people fall in love with the hobby and they incorporate it with everything. That’s why cycling is the most effective exercise for weight loss, it’s not because you are going full throttle 2 hours a day, it’s because you use your bike for so many reasons and it helps you to cut down on eating poorly. There are plenty of other advantages to having a bike but do you really need more than that?
