If I cycle on pavement, what kind of bike do I need?

For biking on paved roads and similar surfaces, a road bike, hybrid bike, and BMX bike would all do the trick. On the sportier side, road bikes generally feature lightweight frames, large and thin tires, and downward-pointing handlebars. Road bikes make for a great fitness bike, as they can reach considerable speeds and can accommodate a range of hand and riding positions. A comfort bike (sometimes called a cruiser or leisure bike) is also a good choice for road riding—at a more leisurely pace. These bikes are meant for comfortable, hassle-free bike rides along paved surfaces, and feature wide seats and a relaxed seating position.

If I ride my bike on dirt paths, what kind of bike do I need?

If you predominantly ride your bike on dirt paths and similar outdoor trails, a mountain bike, BMX bike or hybrid bike would all fit the bill, depending on your specific needs. Mountain bikes are the most common choice of bicycle for trail riding, as most models come equipped with top-notch brakes, impact-absorbing suspension, wide treaded tires, and ruggedly constructed frames. As they can handle steep, rocky, and generally rugged terrain, mountain bikes are a great choice for off-road riding.
