The 2010 GT Traffic 2.0 is a superb example of one of a new breed of bicycles built in response to what urban cyclists need day to day.

Add to this the fact that not only is it practical but good looking as well.

What is a Hybrid Sports Bike?
These are hybrids for the fit! Theyre more for the quick run into work or for a fast hour ride on the weekend rather than purely casual leisure riding. Despite having lots of gears, the lighter components often make this bike a closer relative to the road bike than the mountain bike. A wide range of customising accessories are available to fit these models. For more information on hybrid bikes see our Hybrid Bikes Buying Guide.
