Each cycling category treats different psychological defects. MTB is nothing more than a bicycle for the terrain. The mountain bike category is about you and explores the relationship between you and the world around you - often in an extremely sensitive way. MTB means loneliness. Alone with yourself and nature. There are no teammates, no distractions, just you, the bike, nature - and the task to overcome. No cheating, no escape routes. There is only the deed.
The mountain bike category can be grouped in several ways. There are rigid-tail and fully telescopic MTBs. We also distinguish areas of use: we divide the mountain bike segment into cross country/marathon (XCC, XCO, XCM, XCE), trail, all mountain, enduro and downhill categories.
The first very important aspect is whether you want to buy models with a rigid tail or fully. The hardtail models are slightly lighter and the prices are somewhat more affordable. A fully, on the other hand, can be a more versatile playmate that is suitable for several areas of use - not to mention that even these cross country MTB bikes in the premium category are incredibly light.
The second important aspect is what frame material is the particular cross country MTB bike made of? Obviously, carbon and aluminum can also be used here, but we definitely recommend carbon in this category due to the much more favorable properties of the material group. In this category, we actually only recommend hardtails with an aluminum frame.
The first reason is a quarter of a century of business and more than 40 years of competitive experience. Our specialists have all the knowledge necessary to make shopping with us as enjoyable as possible.
The second reason is the brands we sell. Wilier Triestina and Pinarello offer luxury quality that meets all needs in the cross country/marathon mountain bike segment (also). Being traditional premium manufacturers, no challenge can arise for which these legendary Italian companies do not have a high-quality solution. Finally, we would bring up stability and reliability.
