- Mountain bikes is a general term for some very specific types of bike - freeride, off-road, downhill, slalom, trials or cross country. The heart of the bike is the frame and materials used range from steel, aluminium, carbon and latterly magnesium and may have optional front suspension, aka 'hardtail' or front and rear suspension aka 'full' or 'dual' suspension. Likened to a car, suspension keeps the wheels on the ground to increase traction and therefore control but also cushions the rider from the sudden impact of obstacles such as tree roots on a forest path or rocks ona mountain path. Technically, suspension makes the bike easier to control, reduces fatigue and usually make the ride more confortable. Braking is achieved by one of 3 main methods, drum brakes, disc brakes ( hydraulic or mechanical - cable ) or the use of pads eg 'v' brakes, caliper or cantilever.Some products may contain extra charges such as Carriage.
