How To Enjoy The Outside With A Full Suspension Mountain Bike.

2016/7/25 11:42:05

Natures abundant splendour, the beautiful mountains set in the lap of scerene lake with crystal clear water.

Nothing could be as fulfilling as enjoying such nature's beauty with a full suspension mountain bike. Here full suspension means that all the shock absorbers are intact while one is traveling downhill or trekking that unknown terrain. That is the unique flexibility of a full suspension mountain bike which is most fitting while riding downhill and riding out uneven territory. Such flexibility comes along with a higher price tag when compared to an ordinary mountain bike.

The upside of it all is it's crafted to suit every family member in the household, so even kids can enjoy this hobby. First of all the reason why it is called full suspension mountain bike are its rear and front tires which have suspension, hence it can be also called a dual suspension mountain bike. Its main purpose is to absorb the shocks while travelling most especially on rough terrain. The more absorption it can take the more comfortable the handling will be while using it. Plus the body won't be sacrificed in the process on catching all the bumps and curves it will experience.

While it is good for trekking rough terrain and downhill travel, a full suspension mountain bike would not be good for racing or for uphill climbing because of its heavier frame. That's the cons of having superb features but for a particular travel there would be a particular bike suited for it. When it is used on a regular basis full suspension mountain bikes need more maintenance than your regular bikes in your garage. The fact that they've been subjected to the roughest terrain there is then that will be the equivalent of love and care in the maintenance department.

Proper care and maintenance ensures an excellent ride and performance while off the road and it will also make sure that you will not spend much on replacing parts and shall remain with you for a long time. There are various options in speed to choose from in a full suspension mountain bike up to 27 speeds. Before getting excited to purchase a full suspension mountain bike one has to determine the brand and the standards one is looking for. Secondly, budget is also a consideration, the high end models being a bit more expensive and you may feel the pinch in the pocket. Thus for beginners it is sensible to start with financially lower cost model and then after a while slowly move on to a higher notch.
