Description

A mountain bike is designed for off-road cycling and rugged terrain. Here are the typical full specifications:

1. Frame:

  • Material: Lightweight and durable materials like aluminum, carbon fiber, or steel.
    • Aluminum: Affordable, lightweight, and strong.
    • Carbon Fiber: Lighter, stiffer, and more expensive, absorbs vibrations.
    • Steel: Heavier but durable and comfortable.
  • Geometry: Sturdy frame with a slacker head angle for stability on rough terrain, and a shorter wheelbase for maneuverability.

2. Fork:

  • Suspension Type: Front suspension (hardtail) or full suspension (front and rear).
    • Hardtail: Only front suspension, lighter and more efficient for climbing.
    • Full Suspension: Both front and rear suspension, more comfortable for rough terrain.
  • Travel: Typically 100mm-160mm for front suspension and 120mm-160mm for rear suspension on full-suspension bikes.

3. Drivetrain:

  • Crankset: Single or double chainrings for lighter weight and better efficiency.
  • Rear Derailleur: 9, 10, or 11-speed systems (single chainring or double).
  • Shifters: Trigger or twist shifters for smooth gear changes.
  • Cassette: Wide-range cassettes for handling steep climbs and fast descents.

4. Wheels:

  • Size: 26″, 27.5″, or 29″ wheels (29″ is becoming more common for rolling over obstacles smoothly).
  • Rims: Strong, wide rims for durability on rugged terrain.
  • Tires: 2.0″ to 2.5″ wide knobby tires for traction on dirt, rocks, and mud.

5. Brakes:

  • Type: Hydraulic or mechanical disc brakes for reliable stopping power in all conditions.
    • Hydraulic Disc Brakes: More powerful and require less maintenance.
    • Mechanical Disc Brakes: Easier to adjust and maintain.
  • Rotor Size: Typically 160mm to 203mm, larger rotors provide more braking power.

6. Handlebars:

  • Type: Wide, flat handlebars for better control and stability.
  • Material: Aluminum or carbon fiber for strength and reduced weight.
  • Grips: Often ergonomic, with padding for comfort and grip.

7. Saddle:

  • Type: Designed for comfort during rough rides, typically with extra padding or a more robust structure.
  • Material: Often synthetic leather or other durable materials.

8. Pedals:

  • Type: Clipless or platform pedals.
    • Clipless Pedals: For better pedal efficiency, used with specific cycling shoes.
    • Platform Pedals: More versatile and used with regular shoes.

9. Suspension:

  • Type: Front suspension (hardtail) or front and rear suspension (full suspension).
  • Adjustment: Some models offer adjustable suspension for different types of terrain.

10. Weight:

  • Range: 12-16 kg (26-35 lbs), depending on frame material, suspension type, and components.

11. Extras:

  • Dropper Post: Allows you to adjust the saddle height on the fly for more control on downhill sections.
  • Protective Features: Some bikes come with built-in chainstay protectors or fork guards for additional durability.
