I want your opinion for what kind of bike is better to buy in city . Thanks
Answer
So where are these off-road trails in the city? What is it about mountain bikes? Does everyone think they look cool or something putting around on paved streets at 10 to 12 mph?
Buy a bike intended for "where & how" you will be riding. See link...

For paved surfaces in the city, the two best choices would be a hybrid or a road bike.

What size bike will work best for me?
John
I want to start working out with a bike. I am a senior and hope to do 10-15 miles a day. I am six ft tall and want something that will fit my frame. Any ideas?
Answer
In all capital letters...WHAT KIND OF BICYCLE???!!! Get the type of bike designed for "Where & How" you will be riding. Read "Bicycles: How to Choose" on this link...

Then go see your authorized, independent, knowledgeable, friendly, local bicycle shop. Test rides are F-R-E-E! The salesperson will help you choose the best frame size. Frame sizing varies somewhat from one company to the next, just as shoe sizes. You have to TRY them on.
Mountain bike - roughly a 19" or 20" frame size.
Hybrid - roughly a 21" or 22" frame size.
Road bike - roughly a 58 cm frame in a conventional frame or a 55cm to 56 cm frame size in these newer "compact" frame designs.
