mountain bicycle / bike

First seen in: 1986

The most popular style of bicycle today; these tough, multi- geared machines were ostensibly designed for use on rough mountain tracks, but have become increasingly popular, with their sturdy frames and thick tyres, as the ideal way of dealing with the bumpy rides that face the urban cyclist on pot-holed city streets.
