Mountain Biking
Two wheels, dirt trails, and gravity. Discover the riding styles, bikes, and gear that get you out on the mountain.
Why ride the mountains?
Mountain biking mixes fitness, skill, and the outdoors into one sport. It takes you places no road can go — through forest singletrack, over rocky ridgelines, and down descents that make you grin for days. Start easy, ride within your limits, and the trails will open up from there.
Trail & bike types
Every style of riding calls for a different machine.
Trail
The most popular category. 120–140mm of travel balances climbing ability with playful, confident descending.
Enduro
150–170mm of travel for aggressive riding. Pedal up, then race flat-out down the roughest lines on the mountain.
Downhill
200mm of travel, heavy-duty frames, and no climbing ambitions. Designed purely for bike-park lifts and gnarly descents.
