Firmiana, enlisted in the Confartigianato di Macerata “100% Made in Italy” association, proposals some fantastic mountain bikes in their online store, designed, produced and assembled completely in Italy, to guarantee maximum quality and safety possible..

We are talking about bicycles that are constructed to travel on dirt tracks going up and downhill. The structure must guarantee agility but also robustness at the same time: the heavier frame and the bigger tyres compared with traditional bikes, allow the mountain bike to have a better friction with the road surface, and so guarantee optimum performances on normal street surfaces too. All the strength and energy of the pedalling must be transferred to the back wheel and all the bumps must be absorbed in the most harmonious way.

Which are the materials that are used most to construct mountain bikes? Until a while ago, steel was the most used as it was very resistantand long lasting. Today, 90% of mountain bikes have a frame of aluminium, as resistant as steel but with a lighter weight. We can’t not mention carbon and titanium, but with these materials the price increases greatly.

Firmiana proposes special mountain bikes by FARAM, a leading company in this sector in Italy. Each bicycle has a technical label attached to know all the characteristics. Purchasing online is simple, fast and safe. For any further information contact us with no obbligation.
