Biking is a great way to get some exercise in, especially with people constantly looking for some fun ways to do it. The pandemic has also seen many people fearing coming into gyms right after the pandemic has finally shown signs of ending.
Now, the question arises on what type of bike should you buy? The road bike or a mountain bike. Well, they both are bikes but the mountain bike is an all-rounder that can handle everything. So when you want to take a ride in hilly terrains, where the road is likely to be tougher, the mountain bike is going to be your best friend.
To help you decide which mountain bike is the best fit for you, we’ve listed 10 of the best ones that we’ve found.
1. Polygon Mountain Bike Cascade 2

We’re starting this list with one of the best options for mountain bikes for beginners. Beginners have a totally different set of requirements compared to the more experienced riders, focusing on things like costs, ease of use and also looks. That’s why the Polygon Mountain Bike Cascade 2 is perhaps the best option for you to start with.
This mountain bike is designed keeping in mind that you need something versatile. That’s why, during weekdays you can use it for your everyday travel and during the weekends, take it up to the mountains for a good round of exercise. It is extremely lightweight and durable, making it easy to handle, and it will also survive the few crashes while you learn how to ride a mountain bike.
Don’t be scared of the crashes though. They’re very unlikely to occur, considering that this bike also has a 100mm travel suspension fork that smooths out the bumps on the roads for a smooth ride.
2. EUROBIKE X300

Now we’re here to give you the best options, and we do not disappoint. If for some reason you do not find the Mountain Bike Cascade 2 appealing, you can go for the Eurkobike X300 instead. Another beast that you can get for a really affordable price, this bike is a monster on wheels.
