Hardtail Mountain Bikes
When mountain bikes are ‘hardtail’ it simply means there is no suspension at the rear, and in most cases they feature front suspension in the forks. They are best suited to light trails, bike paths, parks and commuting. Typically, hardtail mountain bikes are less expensive because they are mechanically simpler, as in come without rear shocks, pivots or tubes behind the seat. This also means the bikes are lighter and easier to handle.

Dual Suspension Mountain Bikes
Also referred to as full suspension mountain bikes, these bikes primarily differ from Hardtails in that they feature suspension at both the front and the rear of the bike. They are also built with more hardware, such as rear shocks, making them generally a more expensive option.
The additional hardware means they are better suited for rough terrain and more technical riding because the rear shocks make for a more comfortable ride.

Downhill Mountain Bikes
For the adrenaline junkies who want to kick it up a gear, our range of downhill mountain bikes are specifically designed for downhill racing on steep, technical trails. They are dual (or ‘full’) suspension bikes with a special focus on features that improve durability and braking.

Fat Bikes
Fat bikes get their name from the wider wheel sizes and extremely tough, low-pressure tyres. By creating a ‘wider foot-print’, the weight of the bike is spread across a larger surface area, preventing the rider from becoming ‘bogged’. This makes fat bikes the best option on sand, snow and mud.
Check out our range of fat bikes.
Dirt Jumpers
Mountain bikes that have taken a fair amount of inspiration from BMX, Dirt Jumpers are best suited for riders who need low seats, thicker tyres and a great deal of suspension for tackling dirt mounds at speed.

How To Find The Right Size Mountain Bike

Simply measure your height in centimeters and find the corresponding bike size in the chart. It’s that easy!
You’ll notice some sizes and heights overlap, for example, a rider measuring between 150-155cm could find a XS or SM sized bike comfortable.
