5 Reasons To Ride Full Suspension Mountain Bikes
Trail riding can provide you with an unforgettable adventure - that is, if you know how to manage your riding experience. If you get on the trail without a good mountain bike, you may be in for a rude shock. Here are 5 reasons why you may wish to consider buying a full suspension mountain bike.
Reason 1: More comfortable while cruising.
Reason 2: Higher level of maneuverability over obstacles.
Reason 3: Cushion landings.
Reason 4: Faster on the descent.
Reason 5: More effective braking.
Reason 1: More comfortable while cruising.
Unlike the road, the trail is made up of sand, dirt, tiny pebbles, and sometimes pieces of rocks. If you have a full suspension bike, you will experience less feedback from your bike frame. Most of the vibration caused by the pebbles and rocks will be absorbed by the shock absorbers. That means you will be able to ride more comfortable as you are cruising along. That helps to save energy and keeps you prepared for the obstacles ahead.
Reason 2: Higher level of maneuverability over obstacles.
Having suspension means your wheels can move up and down to a certain degree. That allows you to ride over smaller obstacles without experiencing great discomfort or difficulty. The wheels just go over the obstacles as though they are not there.
Reason 3: Cushion landings.
Of course, not all obstacles are small ones on the trails. Sometimes, you may be required to jump over the obstacles. With a full suspension bike, the landings will be cushioned as the impact is absorbed on the front suspension. This prevents the shock from sending waves of vibration up the handle bars, through your arms and into your body.
Reason 4: Faster on the descent.
Since a better suspension system ensures a smoother ride, it is inevitable that you go faster on the descent. You won't be struggling for control because the wheels are bobbing up and down on the gravel. You will feel more confident to allow the bike to pick up speed as you are going down.
Reason 5: More effective braking.
When you are on the descent, you may need to slow down periodically at times due to the changing conditions on the trail. As you are heading down, and you need to brake quickly, the front brakes will be more effectively. In other words, most of the weight will be placed on the front forks. This is where the suspension will come in useful. A good front suspension allows you to brake harder as it has the ability to absorb the pressure placed on it. This leads to more effective braking. If your mountain bike does not have front suspension, you may be flung over the handlebars if you brake too hard! That is because all that weight now lies on your elbow, and your elbow may just give in to all that sudden pressure.
