What is a hardtail mountain bike?
Hardtail mountain bikes are known for their versatility and ability to tackle all terrains. Featuring no rear shock, meaning that their rear wheels are attached directly to the frame, hence the name ”hardtail bike”.
Equipped with either rigid forks or front suspension, which is essential for absorbing trail shock and increasing riders’ comfort.
Why should you go for a hardtail mountain bike?
Hardtail mountain bikes are incredibly versatile and resilient, which makes them a great choice for beginner mountain cyclists and advanced riders alike. They tend to be lighter, easier to look after, and require less maintenance than full suspension mountain bikes.
They are also cheaper than many other bike types on the market, which makes hardtail MTB a fantastic option for those who want to get into mountain biking without spending too much straightaway.
Hardtail MTB will allow you to ascend hillsides with ease and will perform well in most terrains, from gravel and stone mountain trails to less intense trails, such as woodland paths or city streets.
