As a cyclist, there’s nothing like a long ride or sports to bring a sense of accomplishment, and of course, those require a certain level of endurance, and it’s best to work on gradually building your cycle matching with all those criteria.
In weekend-long trips or sports surely go for robust front brakes as they’ll help you to track the control. Choosing geared cycles with a standard gear ratio is mandatory to maintain wheel RPM. In the sports field (exp - BMX) some opt for a little more height of handlebar so that they can bend and use aerodynamics to increase speed.

Here you will need speed to complete on time and thin tires with low rolling resistance which can handle a range of pressures will help you to do that. Generally speaking, pocket pinch must cross 15k to a few lakhs range to choose the best option here.
