Downhill Bike

As increased attention has been given to extreme sports, sales of the downhill bike have increased. There are now even racing circuits for downhill riders. Cyclists new to downhill riding should take extreme caution when starting out and purchase all necessary safety equipment and learn the descending techniques.

A downhill bike is usually made of aluminum or steel for increased stability. Because this bike is a niche product it is very expensive. The starting price is usually around $2,000 for just the frame.

A downhill bike brings the adrenaline rush of mountain biking to a new level. Downhill bikes are designed to accommodate high-speed descent. In fact, some riders don't even take them uphill. Instead, they take a chair lift or shuttle to the top of the trail.
