I've found that lifting is much better for weight loss than running/biking. I've gained weight while running 30-40 miles/week and typically lose weight while lifting (if I pay attention to my calories.) A lot of people say the same.

If you're focused on BF%, lifting is even more appealing since you'll be building muscle/reducing bf% even at a constant weight.
