What's the difference between a mountain bike and a road bike?

The appearance of the mountain gives people a complex and heavy feeling, while the road gives people a simple, smooth and light feeling.

The mountain bike feels stable and comfortable, with good maneuverability and braking. The design of all road bikes emphasizes speed. Due to the narrow tire width, the requirements on the road surface are high, and the wet road surface is easy to slip and has poor flexibility.

Mountain bikes have low requirements on the road surface and low failure rate. Players generally choose mountain bikes to participate. And when you ride a long distance, you should choose a mountain bike.

On the one hand, because mountain bikes can carry loads, you can carry enough supplies during your riding. On the other hand, the road conditions for long-distance riding are unknown, and the failure rate of mountain bikes is low, which can ensure that you ride smoothly.

However, mountain bikes also have a disadvantage, that is, the speed is relatively slow, and it is more laborious to ride on hard and flat roads, so if you ride in a short-distance team, mountain bikes have no advantage at all.

Highway vehicles have high requirements on the road surface and are prone to puncture and skid. For beginners, the road car is not a good choice.

Long-distance riding, road vehicles can not carry goods, the failure rate is relatively high, not suitable for riding.

The development opportunities of mountain biking in China give Chinese people a qualitative concept. In the 1980s and 1990s of reform and opening-up, as mountain bikes became popular all over the world, many people preconceived that mountain bikes were a kind of racing cars.

At this time, most people are not clear about the concept of the Tour de France.
