Best mountain bike

There are few things more exhilarating than blazing down a steep and windy trail, dodging rocks and trees along the way. However, safety should always come first while riding and any small mechanical failure could lead to serious injury–that’s why the best mountain bike should have quality components to ensure safe traveling.

The best mountain bikes should have:
• Proper tire pressure; low tires are harder to control.
• Clean brakes (disc brakes recommended)
• Suspension
• Clean derailleurs
• Oiled chain

Trail riding is inherently dangerous, and even the best mountain bikes cannot prevent a crash. The best safety precaution is good judgment: If a trail looks to difficult or steep, there is nothing wrong with walking a bike through tough spots. Also ALWAYS WEAR A HELMET–doing so will prevent debilitating head injuries.
