Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about MTB bikes like this one.

Are mountain bikes hard to ride?

Not really - their sturdy build and grippy tyres actually make rough terrain easier to handle than on a standard bike.

Which wheel size should I choose - 26", 27.5", or 29"?

26" suits city riding and light trails, 27.5" is a versatile choice for both city and off-road use, and 29" rolls best over obstacles for serious off-road and downhill riding.

Can I ride an MTB on paved city roads?

Yes - mountain bikes handle city streets fine, though they're not as fast as a road or hybrid bike on smooth pavement.

How much weight can an MTB carry?

Most MTBs handle riders up to roughly 100-120kg, though this varies by brand and model - check the specific bike's listing for exact figures.

What does suspension actually do?

It absorbs shocks from rough terrain, giving a smoother, more controlled ride with better traction on rocky trails or potholed roads.
