How to choose a racing car (mountain bike)?

Mountain bikes are divided into XC (Mountain Cross Country) according to different uses; DH (downhill); FR (free riding); All terrain mountain area

Among them, XC is the most common mountain bike and the lowest requirement mountain bike. It only has front shock absorption, and the whole vehicle is configured according to the principle of efficiency first. Comfort is not as good as other mountain bikes, but it is suitable for mountain climbing and more efficient.

AM pays more attention to comfort than XC. It has a long front shock absorber and a long rear shock absorber, which is much heavier and less efficient than XC, but it can also climb mountains.

FR is a mountain bike that pays more attention to comfort than AM. With good passing performance, it can adapt to all kinds of bad roads. However, due to its heavy weight, it will be cumbersome and inefficient when going uphill. The average driver just needs to push the cart uphill.

DH is a mountain bike used to rush down the mountain. It has the strongest body and long-stroke shock absorber. Moreover, the body is also the heaviest, and it can only go downhill, and even the road is not suitable for riding.

2. After deciding the purpose, consider the budget. All models have a minimum budget. If the budget is not enough, even if a similar car can be installed, it can't be used accordingly, and safety comes first.

DH is the most expensive mountain bike. Generally, about 20 thousand DH cars are barely enough, because DH is the most dangerous. A DH car with hundreds of thousands will sometimes disintegrate and be damaged during the race.

The minimum configuration of FR and AM is more than 65,438+10,000 yuan, mainly because these two cars require good shock absorption. If inferior shock absorbers are used, not only can comfortable riding be achieved, but they are also easy to be damaged, further reducing efficiency.

XC mountain bike is the easiest to promote. The XC mountain bike of about 2000 yuan can be used for medium cross-country, and there are more professional vehicles around 3000 yuan (Merida Challenger 300), and around 5000 yuan is already very professional. Then get on the soft tail (with rear shock absorber) frame and go in the direction of FR.

3. Finally, the brand, a popular mountain bike brand, includes Giant, Merida, Cui Ke and so on. All three factories can produce world-class racing cars, and all have good results, so they can be considered as having good technical strength.

Giant and Merida are both brands in Taiwan Province Province, China, and relatively professional low-end mountain bikes in China are the best among these two brands. There is no better way to put it. Different grades have their own advantages, probably: 1000- 1500. No one has an advantage, and they are all the same; 1500-2200, Giant is more dominant, and its cost performance exceeds Merida; Above 3000, Merida Challenger series has a high cost performance, and Giant ATX8 series frame is too low in grade, so the cost performance can not go up.

Trick is an American brand. People who have just come into contact with mountain bikes may think this brand is awesome and big. However, after getting familiar with the grade and configuration of mountain bikes, you will find that there is nothing suitable for amateur riding except an 8500 frame, and Cui Ke is a famous shop with less cars and poor service, so it is generally not recommended to buy it.

4. Complete vehicle or loaded vehicle

Some people say that the whole vehicle is good, but the good vehicle is after-sales service and quality assurance; Some people say that it is better to install well and configure what suits you.

If it's the first car, it's better to have a brand car with a lower grade. After riding for a period of time, there will always be some experience and understanding, and you will feel that the entry car is not suitable and not enough, and then you can install it according to your own needs before you can install the car that suits you.
