downhill bike
Gravity-fed bicycle
A downhill bike is a mountain bike built for descending steep, rough terrain at high speed.
These bikes feature heavy-duty suspension, reinforced frames, and aggressive braking systems designed to absorb big impacts and maintain control on technical descents.
Riders typically shuttle or lift to the top rather than pedaling up: He took the chairlift with his downhill bike.
