What is the Downhill?

Downhill bikes tends to weigh between 16 to 20 kg, and usually feature a full-suspension design, and frame geometry that leans back further than other mountain bikes. Downhill bikes usually have hydraulic disc brakes moderate the riders speed, just like in motorcycles or cars.
Downhill bikes and freeride bikes are very similar but there are some slight differences. Downhill race bikes typically are much lower and have slacker head angles than freeride bikes, so that the bike is more stable at speed and in corners. Dual crown forks often used by downhill riders, dual crown forks usually have around 200 mm of travel, and single crown forks are usually around 180mm maximum.

Many ski areas are converted into bike parks in the summer when no have snow in the mountains, however there are also many other hills with Downhill Mountain Bike trails built on them. Bikers ride and jump gondolas, trams or chair lifts to the starting point at the top of the mountains. Another method commonly referred to as "Shuttling", uses motorized vehicles to transport multiple riders to the top of the hill.
