Difference Between Mountain Bike and Fixed Gear Bike.

2023 02/23

Thanks to the rapid development of contemporary technology and the increasing speed and diversity of transport options, cycling has gradually changed from a means of transport to a sport.
Mountain bikes also called MTB (P1), often used for off-road use in mountainous terrain, have shock absorbers such as forks, brakes and wide tyres, and are not road-sensitive. Most of them can be shifted, and choosing the right gear on different roads can help to save energy.
Fixed gear bikes(P2) are used for racing on the track or performing tricks. They have no shocks, no brakes, slim tyres and a fixed flywheel on the rear wheel, which cannot be idled without the teeth and gears turning, hence the name.
The two bikes can be described as two completely different sports and can be chosen according to your interests.

If you don't ride in a professional venue, it is not advisable to buy a fixed gear bike, as it is less safe in a public transport environment and requires a high level of skill.
