Gravity, Freeride, and Downhill
CONDITION 5
Bikes designed for jumping, hucking, high
speeds, or aggressive riding on rougher
surfaces, or landing on at surfaces.
However, this type of riding is extremely
hazardous and puts unpredictable forces
on a bicycle which may overload the
frame, fork, or parts. If you choose to
ride in Condition 5 terrain, you should take appropriate
safety precautions such as more frequent bike inspections
and replacement of equipment. You should also wear
comprehensive safety equipment such as a full-face
helmet, pads, and body armor.
INTENDED For riding that includes the most difcult
terrain that only very skilled riders should attempt.
Gravity, Freeride, and Downhill are terms which describe
hardcore mountain, north shore, slopestyle. This is
“extreme” riding and the terms describing it are constantly
evolving. Gravity, Freeride, and Downhill bikes are:
(1) heavier and have more suspension travel than
All-Mountain bikes, allowing them to be ridden in more
difcult terrain, over larger obstacles and larger jumps,
(2) the longest in suspension travel and use components
that t heavy duty intended use. While all that is true,
there is no guarantee that extreme riding will not break
a Freeride bike. The terrain and type of riding that
Freeride bikes are designed for is inherently dangerous.
Appropriate equipment, such as a Freeride bike, does not
change this reality. In this kind of riding, bad judgment,
bad luck, or riding beyond your capabilities can easily
result in an accident, where you could be seriously injured,
paralyzed or killed.NOT INTENDED To be an excuse to
try anything. Read Section 2. F, p. 10.
TRADE OFF Freeride bikes are more rugged than
All-Mountain bikes, for riding more difcult terrain.
Freeride bikes are heavier and harder to ride uphill than
All-Mountain bikes.

hensive safety equipment such as a full-face helmet, pads,

INTENDED For man-made dirt jumps, ramps, skate parks
other predictable obstacles and terrain where riders need
and use skill and bike control, rather than suspension. Dirt
Jumping bikes are used much like heavy duty BMX bikes.
A Dirt Jumping bike does not give you skills to jump. Read
Section 2. F, p. 9.
NOT INTENDED For terrain, drop offs or landings where
large amounts of suspension travel are needed to help
