What’s the difference between full suspension and dual suspension?

Mountain biking is a great way to get out into nature. Like most types of cycling it’s very fun, and can also be done competitively. There are 3 main types of suspension, 2 of which are dual suspension and full suspension. Today I will explain the differences between them. 

A dual suspension bike and a full suspension bike are names for the same type of bike. There is no difference between a dual suspension bike and a full-suspension bike. These types of bikes are ideally suited to cross country and trail riding but can be used for any type of riding.

Dual suspension, also known as full-suspension, has a range of advantages over other types of suspension. Today I will explain what these are and if it’s necessary or desirable to get one over the other.

Dual suspension is only better for front suspension for downhill or enduro riding. For country and trail riding both dual suspension and front suspension are good. Dual suspension absorbs impact better than front suspension. But, for trail riding or country, it’s not required.A full-suspension mountain bike is best suited to downhill and enduro.

Downhill and enduro riding are timed. Therefore, the objective is to get the lowest time possible, to finish the designated circuit as fast as possible.

The ride is smoother
