About this app
Downhill mountain biking (DH) is a genre of mountain biking practiced on steep, rough terrain that often features jumps, drops, rock gardens, and other obstacles.
Downhill bikes are heavier and stronger than other mountain bikes and feature front and rear suspension with over 8 inches (20 cm) of travel to glide quickly over rocks and tree roots. In competitive races, a continuous course is defined on each side by a strip of tape.
Riders start at intervals, often seeded from slowest to fastest, and courses typically take two to five minutes to complete, with winning margins being usually less than a second. Riders are timed with equipment similar to that used in downhill skiing.
Many ski areas are converted into downhill mountain biking venues in the summer, such as Whistler Mountain Bike Park and Fernie Alpine Resort, alongside the specifically developed all-season downhill trails. At some courses, bikers ride gondolas, trams, or chair lifts to the starting point, or "shuttling" with motorized vehicles is used to transport riders to the top of the hill. Others are accessible by riding (or pushing) bicycles to the starting point. Urban downhill courses have also appeared in mountain-side cities, with the classes going through city streets and sidewalks, such as the Taxco Downhill event in Mexico.
Purpose-made downhill bikes started to appear in the 90s, with innovations such as dual crown forks and disc brakes and more elaborate suspension designs.
Later, riders from other disciplines began focusing on a downhill, such as BMX racers Daniel Solano and Brian Lopes. Their influence is seen in the increased difficulty of many courses, with bigger jumps and drops added. The coming of age for downhill biking was its inclusion at the first UCI Mountain Bike Championship, held in 1990 in Durango, Colorado.
