I haven't ridden a bike since I was 14. I want something that isn't going to break or feel dangerous if I rip through some trails but isn't going to feel exhausting on the road. I remember having some mountain bikes as a kid that just dragged ass on the pavement compared to a road bike. I've heard that hybrid bikes can sort of just be the worst of both worlds. I will probably spend about 80% of time on the road and 20% on trails, but nothing too crazy because I live in the midwest away from rocky and mountainous terrain. Does anybody have a recommendation? I'm 5'11 and about 200lbs. I was looking at Trek FX-2, to give an idea of my price range. Should I look for something used instead? This board could really use a sticky or pastebin for absolute noobs like me. I just want to have a good time on a bicycle but I'm overwhelmed
