Mountain:
If you want to ride on unpaved roads or down dirt trails, then a
mountain bike is what you'll need.
Mountain bikes are intended solely for off-road use in rugged terrain,
but are often used on the road due to their popularity and low cost. The
frames and components are stronger and more rugged than those of any
other category of bike. Tires are fat and knobby (aka aggressive tread)
and they have a flat profile handlebar for handling and very low gears
for easier hill climbing. Included in the category of mountain bikes are
different varieties ranging from the entry level bike to the fully
loaded durable full suspension bike for the hard core rider. Downhill/Freeride: If you want a bike that you can throw down a mountain at high speeds, then still have something left to ride home on, a downhill bike is what you need. These bikes feature beefy front and rear shocks with a large range of travel to take the bumps and jumps that downhill terrain offers. Large tires with wide rims and disc brakes for added stopping power come standard here. Downhill bikes are the cycling equivalent to riding a roller coaster, just make sure you pad up!
