2: in the field, and even downhill end use hard, the frame of the fork travel long could bring good feeling, make you more simple, my hill is to use the Suggestions about four inches (about 100-120), oil spring structure is a good choice. In setting, besides the rebound damping according to different road conditions in different choices, the hardness of the fork, need than normal setting in the hard, so that the violent collisions, ride for fork will have enough space.
3: in wearing, if you need to practise earnestly, you alone downhill should dress for the standard, not to clash on behavior standards (safety is always the first topic) bicycle
4: see, the far far: the attention, you can't downhill below, you wheels, you should pay attention to in front of you, you should see you after a few seconds to ride, it helps you to adjust speed corners and advance with shock and etc.
5: stand under the broken, or advise you to adopt standing posture, so the body absorb more conducive to you from the end of the car hard unable to absorb shock, of course, if you are in a relatively flat surface, or said before you face a nasty turns, you sit down, to facilitate your body weight in the wheel, have better tour of trace.
