Downhill mountain bikes are built for rapidly descending steep, rough terrain. Downhill courses generally feature jumps, drop-offs, rocks and other obstacles. Downhill bikes are heavier and stronger than other mountain bikes, and feature front and rear suspension with over 20cm of travel. Specifically designed for downhill racing, the bikes are made for descending a course in the shortest time frame, so majority of focus is put into this, rather than uphill pedalling. Downhill bikes need stand up to the challenge of travelling the shortest line possible at the highest speed. Often, a chairlift is used to get back to point A, so downhill bikes are big, mean, and built to last the trip down, not to quickly ride back up.

Downhill bikes from some of the world's best mountain bike brands, including Lapierre, Norco, Merida and GT. With design cues taken directly from motocross, 99 Bikes' downhill range features bikes directly from the UCI World Cup circuit.
