Bergmonch aim of design
Most of the mountain roads of backpack mountain bikes are rugged. Research data shows that because people’s knees and ankles bear several times the weight of their body weight when descending, 67% of climbers have different degrees of knee and ankle problems. The chance of injury is also greatly increased. Many mountaineering enthusiasts have to think twice and even choose to give up before climbing steep mountains.
