What is a mountain bike?
Mountain bikes are bicycles explicitly designed for off-road cycling. They share some similarities with other bikes but incorporate features that enhance durability and performance in rough terrain, making them heavier – more complex than their road counterpart- and less efficient on smooth surfaces.
They often have a suspension fork, large knobby tires, and more durable wheels. You can stop much easier on any surface with hydraulic or mechanical disc brakes, making them great for rough terrains like mountains or raincapes! The handlebars are wide enough to provide stability and precise steering.
