Hardtail Mountain Bikes

If you’re searching for a bike to tackle off road challenges you need a hardtail mountain bike. With a ’go anywhere, do anything’ biking attitude, these bikes are capable of coping with any terrain and smooth out the bumps from both the front and the rear wheels. Simply put, a full suspension bicycle offers the ultimate off road cycling experience.

The AW Cycles online store has a fantastic selection of hardtail bikes to choose from including many well known brands such as Whyte and Rocky Mountain.

What Is A Mountain Bike?

Also known as all-terrain bikes or MTB, mountain bikes are ideal for riding on dirt trails and unpaved surfaces. Their designs make them far better suited to these environments when compared to other bicycle designs such as a road bike.

Bicycles which are designed to tackle these off-road environments and harsh terrain are often very lightweight, making them an idea choice for beginner cyclists. Additionally, as there are lots of accessories designed for off-road biking, our online store also has a plethora of products for experienced cyclists.

The Two Different Types Of Mountain Bike


Generally speaking there are two different types of mountain bikes, full suspension and hardtail. Neither is outright superior to the other; however both do have advantages and disadvantages so you may find one style better suited to your off-road cycling needs.

  • Hardtail
    A mountain bicycle is considered hardtail if it only has suspension at the front of the bicycle. At first glance, it may seem more beneficial to have as much suspension as possible, however by restricting your suspension to the front of the bicycle, you reduce the amount of weight on the bicycle and you increase the energy-efficiency of the bicycle.

  • Full Suspension (full sus)
    When riding on a full suspension bicycle, the cyclist can enjoy a softer ride with less bounce on rough terrain. This will allow you to stay seated for a larger portion of a trail ride, whereas cyclists with front-only suspension may need to stand on their pedals for the majority of the ride.
