How to Brake on a Mountain Bike: Tips and Techniques for a Safe and Smooth Ride
To brake on a mountain bike, use the front and rear brakes simultaneously with a moderate pressure. Avoid squeezing the front brake too hard as it can cause the rider to flip over. Gradually apply the brakes and shift your weight slightly back to maintain control and stability. Practice braking on different terrains and adjust the pressure and intensity of your brakes accordingly.
