For the Metro-sexual beast in him.
Strange. All the new mens moutain bikes at the shop I go to have that style. The womens mountain bikes are still the traditional style for women. The street bikes, though, have both the new style and the traditional mens style. This was at a shop that primarily sells Specialized.
No, it’s a man’s hybrid or comfort bike which are identical in design except for the wheel size, and I can’t tell via a little picture if it’s a 700c wheel or 26” wheel. This is my industry, and you linked to a child’s unisex MTB. The 20” MTB you listed is good for kids up to around 4’6”.
