Modern era began in in the late 1970's Characteristics Mixed gender Olympic Since 1996 Mountain biking is a sport which consists of riding bicycles off-road, often over rough terrain, using specially adapted mountain bikes . Mountain bikes share similarities with other bikes, but incorporate features designed to enhance durability and performance in rough terrain. Mountain biking can generally be broken down into multiple categories: cross country , trail riding, all mountain, downhill freeride , street riding, dirt jumping and trials . The vast majority of mountain biking falls into the recreational XC and Trail Riding categories. This individual sport requires endurance, core strength and balance, bike handling skills and self-reliance. XC type mountain biking generally requires a smaller range of skills but a higher level of fitness than other types of mountain biking. Advanced riders pursue steep technical descents and, in the case of freeriding, downhilling, and dirt jumping, aerial maneuvers off of specially constructed jumps and ramps.

Next Level If you can ride a bike, you can mountain bike. Rolling over rocks and roots adds a bone-crunching twist to this traditionally tame sport. Soak in these fundamentals to save face—literally. Shock Your System You can spend thousands on hydraulics, but the most important shock absorbers you have are in your arms and legs—your connecting points to the bike. When traversing rough terrain, let the bike take the hit by employing a loose grip and distributing you weight evenly between hands and feet. Holy Shift Heading up a hill, find a gear you can maintain for the entire ascent. Visualize and Attack Plan ahead—about 20 feet ahead. At times you’ll want to stare down that 2 foot-diameter log under your wheels, but keep one eye on the trail ahead and picture a line where you want to go. While cheaper than road biking, mountain biking can be a gear- and cash-intensive sport. All you really need is a bike and a helmet. Follow these basics to get the right set of wheels.

Unsourced material may be challenged and removed (April 2008) A mountain bike or mountain bicycle (abbreviated MTB or ATB (all-terrain bicycle)) is a bicycle created for off-road cycling. This activity includes traversing of rocks and washouts, and steep declines, on dirt trails , logging roads, and other unpaved mountain biking .

Wheels used on mountain bikes usually use wide, knobby tires for good traction on uneven terrain and shock absorption. Since 2000, front wheel suspension has become the norm and full front and rear suspension has become increasingly common. Some mountain bikes are also fitted with
