Full Suspension Mountain Bikes - How to buy the right Full Suspension Mountain Bike
How to Buy a Full Suspension Mountain Bike
If you are looking to buy a full suspension mountain bike there are a few things that you need to consider. Firstly, why have you chosen to buy a full suspension mountain bike instead of a hardtail bike? The reasons for full suspension will govern what you are looking to buy. If you are on a low budget, then maybe the best thing to do is think twice about buying a full suspension bike, as those available at lower pricing will probably be heavier and therefore be outperformed by a good hardtail bike. Nowever, if you are serious about riding the rockiest of trails, then you need a good full suspension bike.
Full suspension mountain bikes are quite simply more fun than any hardtail, they offer superior comfort and more control over rockier terrains particularly downhill at speed, but choose your suspension well if you want a good climber.
Be aware though that the full suspension will give additional wieght, and with weight comes less efficiency, however this is a trade-off that full suspension riders are well prepared to accept.
When buying a full suspension mountain bike the main consideration is always what suspension travel do you need? Well this depends on what you're looking to use the bike for.
A good cross country mountain bike will have less than 4.5 inches of travel, any more and efficiency will be lost as these bikes rely on pedal power far more. Less suspension travel will mean the suspension unit is lighter, and these bikes need low weight. These bikes are ideal for cross country or uphill racing.
Trail bikes will have up to 6.5 inches of travel allowing for travelling over harsher terrain but they will be heavier so not for racing. for long trail rides over harsh terrain, then these bikes are ideal and can provide an exhilerating and comfortable ride.
If you are looking for free-riding or jumping, then you dont need the speed so weight isnt an issue. 6-8 inches of suspension travel is the right amount for these bikes. These bikes are really built to be abused, jumps, stunts and extreme terain can be taken in your stride.
For downhill bikes, take as much suspension travel aas you can. Up to 10 inches is good for covering any terrain downhill. You will seriously feel the extra weight and loss of efficiency when pedalling uphill, they're not built for uphill riding, they don't rely on pedal power, they're built for control over rough terrain at high speed.
When buying a full suspension mountain bike, the best advice is to buy the best you can afford. A decent bike for any of the above disciplines will cost over $800 so seriously think hardtail at the lower end.

Mountain Bike Suspension Systems $181.62 Mountain bike suspension systems have been designed to improve riding performance and comfort for the cyclist. Additionally, a suspension system may reduce fatigue, energy expenditure, and enhance time trial performance. It has also been proposed, however, that using a rear suspension system on a mountain bike may be detrimental to the cyclist, causing the cyclists energy to be dissipated via the rear suspension system. This book presents an investigation into mountain bike suspension systems and their effect on rider performance, quantifying the dynamic loads exerted on the bike frame and rider. Both the psychological and physiological effects of using a rear suspension system on crosscountry cycling are also considered.

Montague 20 Paratrooper Military Folding Mountain Bike $899 Since the 1980s, Montague has provided full-size folding bicycles to various divisions of the military.In 1997, under a grant from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), Montague partnered with the US Marines to develop the Tactical Electric No Signature (TENS) Mountain Bike. For this project, Montague developed a new folding frame design called the X-Series™, integrating the F.I.T.™ system into the frame design. The non-electric version of the TENS Mountain Bike, named The Paratrooper®, became available shortly thereafter.The F.I.T.™(Folding Integrated Technology) system was developed to allow a full-size, high-performance mountain bike to fold in half so that it could fit through the cargo door of a military aircraft with a paratrooper. When the soldier would hit the ground, he or she would have a tactical mountain bike to use as transportation, thereby bridging the gap between walking and deploying heavy military vehicles. This would not only aid in transportation but it would help to facilitate battlefield reporting as well.The Paratrooper® is a full-size mountain bike that can traverse terrain silently at high speeds with no thermal or acoustic radar signature - key components when trying to avoid the enemy.
