Full Suspension Mountain Bikes vs. Hardtail Mountain Bikes- FAQ

I have started to loose count of the number of times I’ve heard questions such as, “What type of mountain bike should I buy?” and “What is the difference between a full suspension mountain bike and a hardtail mountain bike?” One type of bike is not better than the other. The choice between the two should be made based on the riders’ personal riding preferences, budget and physical capabilities. The FAQ below was compiled in order to help you with this all-important choice.

Question: What are full suspension mountain bikes?
Answer: Also known as dual-suspension mountain bikes, these mountain bikes have shock absorbers installed in both the front and rear tires.

Question: What are hardtail mountain bikes?
Answer: Also known as front or single suspension mountain bikes, these mountain bikes have shock absorbers installed in the front tire only.

]]>

Question: Which type of mountain bike tends to be faster?
Answer: Hardtail mountain bikes tend to be faster and pedal easier in smooth terrain than full suspension mountain bikes because of the former’s light weight and stiff rear end.

Question: Which bike is better at handling obstacles and rough terrain?
Answer: Because of the shock absorbers in both the front and the rear, full suspension mountain bikes outperform hardtails in rough terrain. The suspension absorbs the impact of obstacles and allows for more traction to be transferred to the ground.

Question: Which bike is better at climbing hills?
Answer: Because of their light weight and easier handling, hardtail mountain bikes are better at climbing hills. However, full suspension mountain bikes do outperform hardtails on hills that are made up of rough terrain.

Question: Which bike is easier on the body?
Answer: Full suspension mountain bikesare more comfortable than their counterparts. It minimizes the stress on riders’ arms and backs caused by vibrations and jolts during long rides.

Question: Which is more affordable?
Answer: Hardtail bikes are usally more affordable than full suspension bikes of similar quality.

Now you are equipped with the information you need to make the right choice. Happy Trailing!

Cyclists Agree: Foldable Bikes Provide Ideal Blend of Easy Travel and Anti-Theft Security











Washington, DC (Vocus) May 13, 2010

Hobby cyclist, Adina Jones is pedaling toward the future of biking; she leads by example as she cruises the city streets on her fast-folding bike. This revolutionary advancement promotes an innovative anti-theft system, which stems from its foldable, easily transportable structure.

“The front wheel comes right off – you can even do it one-handed – and then you open the frame quick release to fold the bike in half; it couldn’t be easier and no tools or instructions are needed,” she said.

Inspired by the ease of travel and transport the folding bikes provide, Jones set out to spread the news with the creation FastFoldingBikes.com.Here, online shoppers may browse through a collection of pavement and mountain bikes manufactured by Montague and Swissbike – all which offer convenient portability and security.

“My friends and I agree that our biggest concern with biking is leaving it outside; locks get broken and bikes get stolen,” Jones said. “Folding bikes are full-sized but can be compacted easily so the cyclist can take it inside and leave their worries at the door.”

The Web site also provides a handful of accessories to enhance one’s biking experience. A bag to store the foldable bike, making it easier to transport, a kickstand and foldable pedals may be purchased. To learn more about the features and functionality of the folding bikes, shoppers are encouraged to visit the site’s newly formulated blog, http://www.FoldableBikeReview.com. This interactive tool will also be used to provide bicycle camping and touring information as well as highlight safety tips.
