Downhill Mountain Bikes
Downhill | 27.5" Wheel Diameter
Take your love of gravity sports and the mountains into summer and fall with Loon's downhill mountain biking network. Part of a five-phase project, Loon's variety of progressive downhill trails are perfect for first-time downhillers to seasoned dirt junkies looking to rip berms.
These bikes are specifically designed for downhill mountain biking and feature a full suspension design. Downhill mountain bikes are focused on durability and stability, and are lighter than cross-country bikes.
Premium Downhill | 29" Wheel Diameter
High performance rentals are perfect for more experienced riders, or anyone looking to expand their mountain bike knowledge before purchasing a bike. You can explore different models while elevating your ride. These bikes charge as hard as their riders.
Kids Downhill | 24" or under Wheel Diameter
We also have downhill bike options for little rippers looking to conquer the trail.
