Downhill Mountain Biking
Downhill mountain biking is one of the most extreme styles of mountain biking. Downhill biking, as its name implies is all about riding down steep slopes while getting over obstacles, drops and sharp turn in maximum speed. Over the years, many downhill mountain biking events and competitions have been established all over the world. Downhill competitions are held on courses situated on steep slopes and mountains such as the Alps and the Rocky mountains. The objective of a downhill cycling competition is to reach the bottom in the fastest time. Nonetheless, there are many mountain bikers who ride downhill trails just for the fun of it. In my opinion, mountain biking is a successful combination of the chance to feel a rush of adrenaline, reach remote places, see wonderful scenery and attempt to control and maneuver a mountain bike riding a high speed, through rough terrain.
Most of the main bike trails and bike parks which are geared towards downhill mountain bikers are equipped with attractions and are geared to their special needs. Many downhill mountain biking sites are equipped with chair lifts, which take bikers and their bikes to the top of the descent with no need to climb up. Many downhill mountain biking sites operate as ski sites in the winter and downhill mountain biking centers in the summer. Throughout Europe there are a few parks which are geared to downhill mountain bikers. One can find these sorts of parks in France, Austria, Italy and more. Downhill mountain biking parks offer specially made obstacles and drops, aside of the trails in their parameter.
As much as downhill biking is enjoyable and exciting, it’s one of the more hazardous mountain biking styles. In any case of downhill mountain biking, no matter if you’re an expert or a beginner, be sure do ride with full safety gear and after you have made sure that the trail you’re beginning fits your level of riding.

Iron Horse 7 Point Frame (Freeride)
The 2008 7Point is designed for use on Northshore style trails, in bike parks, or in big mountain riding situations. Freeride trails are generally very technical and combine natural and man-made obstacles and features. Freeride bikes often are ridden deep into the woods and will need to do some climbing. Freeride bikes often feature heavy use frames and wheels, slack frame geometry, large diameter disc brake rotors, dual front chainrings, and 7 of suspension travel. If bike parks, big mountains or Northshore-Style stunts are part of your everyday riding vocabulary, the 7 point is your tool to Gitter Done. For 2008, the 7POINT receives a geometry make over with slacker head tube angles, longer top tubes, and shorter chainstay lengths. This makes for a more responsive and easier to pilot bike when the riding gets sketchy. The 7POINTs OPT 6069-T6 tubing, F7 links, MAX - E bearings, 10-mil shock hardware, 1.5 head tube, and 150X12mm rear hub spacing provide the durability and dependability required of freeride bikes.
