Hybrid cycle is a bicycle that combines features from both road and mountain bikes. Their upright handlebars provide a comfortable riding posture while lightweight frames with thinner wheels and smooth tyres.

The purpose of this combination is to provide a bike that can be used for both on-road and off-road cycling, while still providing more comfort than a traditional mountain bike.

Hybrid bikes usually come with wider, thicker tires than those found on road bikes, as well as flat handlebars rather than drop bars. They may feature more upright riding positions and comfortable saddles. Some hybrid cycles also offer suspension systems to make the ride smoother.
